Training Yourself to Wake Up in the Early Morning & Fajr Prayer. Published. March 9, 2011. By. Ify Okoye. Last June, Muslim Matters asked the following poll question: Did you pray fajr this morning? More than 600 people responded, with more than one-third saying they did not. Truly from the blessings of Allah is that before I became Muslim It is mentioned in hadith: ان لجسدك عليك حقا. Your body has some rights over you. If, as a result of constant awakening, your health is affected then it shall not be lawful to be awake the whole night. (2) It is not necessary to offer tahajjud after sleeping for some time. 4. First, let us define what Qiyam prayer is. Qiyam means standing up or establishing. Perhaps you mean night prayer, which is before dawn at night and is Mustahab (recommended but not obligatory). The time for Salatul Layl begins after midnight until the time for Fajr (morning) prayers. The best time for it is as close to the Fajr prayer as Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle forbade the offering of two prayers: 1. after the morning prayer till the sunrises. 2. after the 'Asr prayer till the sun sets. (Bukhari Volume 1, Book 10, Number 562) The hadiths specifically mention not praying at the moment between Fajr prayer and sunrise. As you woke up after sunrise, the prayer is thus Answer updated 1 year ago. 1.Your Night Prayer (Salat Al-Layl) is valid even if time of Fajr starts while you are still praying Night Prayer. 2.Night Prayer can be performed as Qadha and it is recommended for those who missed it to perform it as Qadha any time during day or night. 3. It is permitted to make up Fajr prayers any time after the sun has clearly risen (around 15 minutes after sunrise), and recommended to hasten to make up one’s missed prayers. (Shurunbulali, Maraqi al-Falah) In fact, we may see this in the practice of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr r.a. who chose to perform the Sunnah Witr prayer before sleeping. He would then wake up later to perform the Tahajjud prayer. Sayyiduna Umar r.a, however, would sleep first and then wake up for the Tahajjud prayer followed by concluding the night with the Witr prayer. In the answer to question no. 9940 we have explained the times of the five daily prayers in detail. It is sufficient here to mention the end of the time for each prayer. The end of the time for Zuhr is when the time for ‘Asr begins. The end of the time for ‘Asr is when the sun starts to turn yellow; the time is extended in cases of ut1Rfk.
