Excellence of Qiyam
—Best of the voluntary prayers
¡“The best of prayers, after those prescribed, are those
prayed in the depth of the night.” [Muslim
and Ahmad]
—Means of entering
Jannah
¡The Prophet said: “O people, spread the salutations,
feed the people, keep the ties of kinship, and pray during the
night while the others sleep and you will enter paradise in
peace.” [al-Hakim, Ibn Majah, and at-Tirmidhi]
—Acceptance of
Supplications
¡The Messenger of Allah said: “Our Lord
descends every night to the lowest heaven, when only one third
of the night has remained. He says: “Who will invoke Me, so that I
may give him? Who will seek My forgiveness, so that I may
forgive him.” [Bukhari and Muslim]
