The Most Rewarding Superogatory Prayer of all is Tahajjud Prophet Muhammad -peace be upon him- has said: "In Paradise there is a castle reserved for those who read Tahajjud" and he further adds, "Those who pray at night will enter paradise without having to account for their acts in this life.” It is recommended that you recite in your prayers as much of the Sacred Quran as you know. If you happen to know by heart the whole of the Sacred Quran you may, in at least 3 nights or most 4 nights of Tahajjud effectuate the complete reading of the Sacred Quran. Otherwise, you may recite 3 Surah Ikhlas (Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad) after your “Alhamdu…" in every Rakat and you will thus derive full benefits of the full recital of the Sacred Quran in every Rakat. During the month of Ramadan one should awake a little earlier for suhoor and make time to pray Tahajjud Salaah for the reward is magnified so much more in Ramadan and duas are even more readily accepted than at any other time of the year. We should be reading Tahajjud EVERY night in the last ten days of Ramdan for any of these nights may be the night of POWER. The dua’s at the time of Tahajjud are very readily accepted by Almighty Allah and one should repent and ask of Allah and try to cry in their dua’s at this time, if one cannot cry due to the hardness of ones heart due to sin then at least one should make the face as if one is crying. Just as a mother tends to her baby quickly and promptly when it cries the same way Allah attends to his servant quicker when they are crying. Also don’t forget that the Reward of Salaah multiplied 70 times or more by use of Miswaak. Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) has reported that, “The prayer before which the Miswak is used is seventy times more excellent than that before which it is not used.” Now we know the tremendous amount of ajr and thawab most of us are missing out because we didn’t know. Let’s revive the sunnah of our beloved prophet -peace be upon him-. Let us make a commitment to try our best not forget our supererogatory prayers and nafils from now on. May Allah accept all our prayers and worships. Ameen.
