"Allahumma yassir wala tu'assir. Rabbi tammim bi'khair."

Ya Allah, make it easy and do not make it difficult. Ya Allah make it end well.

I’m in love with this quote;

“Don’t set limits on your dua because you’re praying to One without limits. Pray big.”

how to maintain a tahajjud routine

trying to wake up for tahajjud + fajr is something that i've been trying to do consistently, especially as it's winter and the days are shorter. this can be hard with my uni studies/lectures and other commitments when I just want to sleep for longer and not wake up. however, these are some things that help me form a routine:

sleep early this means that you're getting enough sleep to not be as tired when you wake up. try and go to sleep around the same time every night so that when you do wake up for tahajjud, your body adjusts over time to this new routine. i tried to be asleep by 11pm and my body naturally started to wake me up around 5-5:30am because of this, alhamdulillah.

setting multiple alarms i am that girl who will wake up her whole house with alarms before it even wakes her up. if i want to wake up at 5:45, i set them for 5:40, 5:45, 5:50, 6:00 and eventually i get tired of snoozing them all and just get out of bed.

repeating 'prayer is better than sleep' in my head sometimes it is so tempting to say 'i'll get up in 5 minutes...' and then that 5 minutes turn into 2 hours. when having the urge to say this to myself and close my eyes, i try and battle it by repeating that phrase in my head which reminds me the blessings of salat and helps me get out of bed.

waking up 30 minutes before fajr by the time i finish praying tahajjud, it is fajr time and i get to complete the first prayer on time as well. this will make it feel easier as you're not waking up in the middle of the night and then going back to sleep and missing fajr or having to wake up for it again - you get to pray both around the same time.

doing something after fajr before a nap sometimes it's hard to go back to sleep after fajr on the days where I start university late/it's the weekend but i still want some rest. i started to do some reading after fajr to make me sleepy so that in an hour or two, i'd go back to sleep for another 2 hours and wake up feeling well rested and continue with the rest of the day. i'm always the most productive on these days. of course, it depends on your life schedule and what is going on in your life as well.

reading about the blessings of tahajjud understanding this makes me want to pray tahajjud even more as i know the benefits and beauty of waking up in the middle of the night when everyone else is asleep and Allah has descended to the lowest heaven in the third part of the night. it makes me want to wake up and be close to Him.

these are just what work for me. if these do not work for you, try and see what does and Insha’Allah you will form your own routine. may Allah make it easy for us all, Ameen.

يوم الجمعة

Du'ā is accepted on this day. The two most authentic opinions concerning when the Du'ā is accepted:

First opinion: When the Imām ascends the Mimbar (pulpit) until the end of Jumu'āh Prayer.

So make sure you:

Supplicate during the sitting of the Imām between the two Khutbah..

Say ameen to the Du'ā of the Imām at the end of the Khutbah.

Supplicate during the Sujood and before Tasleem of the Jumu'āh Prayer.

Second opinion: After Asr until Maghrib.

Ibn Hajar رحمه الله said:

Since Allāh عز و جل is the most generous, it's only suitable that both times are moments of an accepted Du'ā.

” اللهُمَّ زلزل الأرضَ من تحت أقدَامهم وألقِ الرعب في قلوبِهم واجعلهم عبرةً للمعتبرينَ يا رب العالمينَ ،

اللهُمَّ لا ترفعْ لهم رايةً ولا تحقّق لهم غايةً واجعلهم لمن خلفَهم عبرةً وآيةً يا رب العالمينَ ،

اللهم قاتلْ الكفرةَ الذين يصدونَ عن سبيلكَ ويعادونَ أولياءك، واجعل عليهم عذابكَ ورجزك وسخطكَ إله الحقّ يا رب العالمين.. اللهُمَّ طَهر المسجد الأقصى من رجزِ اليهود ، اللهُمَّ طهر المسجد الأقصى من رجز اليهودِ ، اللهُمَّ طهر المسجد الأقصى من رجز اليهود ، اللهُمَّ ارفعْ راية الجهاد ، واقمع أهل الزيغِ والشر والحقد والفسادِ والعنادِ ، وانشر رحمتكَ على العباد والبلاد يا من له الدّنيا والآخرة وإليه المعادِ.“
