Muslims: What To Do @ The Latter Part Of The Nyt? by chilla(f): 11:00am On Jan 21, 2008 |
Salaam all, The Holy Prophet Mohd (SAW) had urged us to sleep the early part of the nyt and wake up @ the latter part 2 woship the Almighty Allah. Worships cld not necessarily be Salaat especially ladies who can be off @ their individual periods. We can be busy with Dhikr, recitation of the Holy Quran etc. The Prophet said 2 get the latter part of the nyt, we should divide the nyt into 3, count the number of hrs we have from sunset to sun rise. Lets assume the sun sets @ 6.30pm (Kano timing) and rises @ 6.30am, we hv exactly 12hrs, divide these hrs by 3, which gives u 4hrs each. Count four hrs each n pick the last 4 hrs 4 ur Ibadat. The recommended timing will now be 3.30am. to 6.30 am. These are very important moments in our lives where anything mentioned on a clean slate is answered without any hindrance. The only battle is Ash-Shaytan( The Cursed one). Anybody who wishes to wake up @ that part of the nyt should recite the first and last 10 verses of Suratul Kahf b4 retiring to bed. The Almighty Allah pleads with us to get up n worship him during that part of the nyt. Ya Ikhwanil Muslimeen, thats to show how loving the Almighty Allah is, wat do u do to thank him FIRST for making you a muslim and for making you who u r today. Allah is oft forgiving n ever merciful. |

chilla: What is "loving" about this? I'm genuinely puzzled. |

@ Chilla It is advised to do the Tarawih prayers preferably 3am /4am recite the Quran during the early hours before Fajr and to recite Duwa'ah for the Prophet (saw) |

@babs787 Alhamdulillahi ala ni'matil Islam. @Mukina, Thnx Sis, jazaakillahu Khairan @D__D The topic wasnt directed @ u, so definately u wouldnt c anythn lovn in it. |

chilla: what a sad and confused cult islam is. What is so secret about it that its adherents are so afraid to reveal? Why can we not ask genuine questions about allah and his quran? I cant see anything loving in that write up NOT because it was not directed at me but because there really is NOTHING loving about it. It is all about rituals, incantations . . . there is nothing to show that allah is listening. How does allah show his love by me waking up at 3am in the morning to recite portions of the quran that most muslims invariably do not understand? pls chila, if you know the answers to these questions present them. The bible says bring ur strong reasons and let us sit down and brainstorm over it . . . why is islam so closed and unwilling to share its "love" with others except through violence? Chila, i am not trying to denigrate you or ur religion . . . i hope this will prompt you to think deeper. |

D-D, because you have a difference in belief does not warrant you to say unrealistic things. I wanna ask you a question. Why do christains do night vigls? Isn't to pray to their God? , so what the hell about Muslims waking upat night and performing Prayers. If you don't understand tings, pls walk out of the thread. |
Re: Muslims: What To Do @ The Latter Part Of The Nyt? by chilla(f): 12:01pm On Jan 23, 2008 |
@D__D . . . i hope this will prompt you to think deeper. ![]() ![]() ![]() Think deeper about wat D___D, myself or religion? I will remain glued to Islam come watever. Cult? It matters not wat u say, Islam is my religion n am very proud of it. @mdsocks No, nyt vigil is not meant 4 worship, probably somethin else, if not y will he be wondern y muslims wake up in the nyt 2 pray? |

mdsocks: again just like you hypocrites to deliberately misinterprete the REAL question i was trying to bring out. Here it is again: Posted by: D__D Quote from: chilla on January 21, 2008, 11:00 AM The Almighty Allah pleads with us to get up n worship him during that part of the nyt. Ya Ikhwanil Muslimeen, thats to show how loving the Almighty Allah is, what do u do to thank him FIRST for making you a muslim and for making you who you're today. What is "loving" about this? I'm genuinely puzzled. That was the question dear Chilla and mdsocks, it has nothing to do with whether muslims wish to refuse to sleep and spend all the time reciting the quran. |
Re: Muslims: What To Do @ The Latter Part Of The Nyt? by babs787(m): 7:20pm On Jan 23, 2008 |
@D_D again just like you hypocrites to make deliberately misinterprete the REAL question i was trying to bring out. Ok let us see hypocrite's real question
It is very glaring that you dont know anything even abut your so called religion let alone causing mischief in Islamic thread. If you care to know, we muslims show appreciation to Allah for making us muslims who remember Him 24/7, supplicate and bow to only Him as our creator and not three in one DVD player. You do not really know what you are missing for not being a muslim. |
Re: Muslims: What To Do @ The Latter Part Of The Nyt? by DD5: 7:24pm On Jan 23, 2008 |
babs787: Yet again you fail miserably to answer my question. How does this show how loving allah is? Pls show me what i'm missing for not being a muslim, i dont really feel like being a slave for eternity. |
Re: Muslims: What To Do @ The Latter Part Of The Nyt? by Nobody: 7:50pm On Jan 23, 2008 |
okD_D How loving it is, abi? It means that from the night prayer you get rewards not just rewards on earth but also the hereafter. You can pray for anything and Insha Allah it would be answered. |
Re: Muslims: What To Do @ The Latter Part Of The Nyt? by DD5: 7:58pm On Jan 23, 2008 |
mdsocks: Is this what "love" really is about? Do muslims understand the contextual meaning of unconditional love? While we were yet sinners (the quran has no concept of sin) Christ died for the ungodly . . . this is radically different from waking up in the night to recite the quran in expectation of getting "rewards". That is like playing the lottery dear mdsocks, it is not love. When i love you i want to do the best i can for you, i'm not hiding my "rewards" from you until you can recite my notebook 10 times every night. What of kids who cant recite the night prayers? What of the sick who cannot? Do they miss their "rewards"? Again my questions go unanswered . . . how does this show that allah is indeed loving? What am i missing in islam? An eternity of slavery? |

@babs787, babs787: Even your signature said "Die EXCEPT As A Muslim" - so what is anyone missing when you so advise them? Finally, you had to lose face and change it now to: "To ignore the facts does not change the facts"! ![]() At least, I know the many things I'm glad to leave behind in Islam when the love of Christ touched me - and I'm eternally grateful. |

@pilgrim.1 Even your signature said "Die EXCEPT As A Muslim" - so what is anyone missing when you so advise them? Finally, you had to lose face and change it now to: "To ignore the facts does not change the facts"! Well done - to ignore the facts we have been sharing all along actually does not change them. I did not lose any face and if you care to know I change my signature as often as I like but try to show that you were trained. At least, I know the many things I'm glad to leave behind in Islam when the love of Christ touched me - and I'm eternally grateful Unfortunately, you will be ignored by tht same Jesus because he was not sent to you. How many questions have you been able to answer on christianity? |
Re: Muslims: What To Do @ The Latter Part Of The Nyt? by pilgrim1(f): 10:26pm On Jan 23, 2008 |
@babs787, babs787: Everytime you lose face you and olabowale resort to this childish rant of being "trained". There's nothing wrong with changing one's signature - but the message was well received before it was changed: "Die EXCEPT As A Muslim" - and that was the only sane thing you have said on Nairaland. babs787: Lol. . . I know in my heart that He has called me His own! ![]() babs787: As many questions that Muslims have offered without the Muslim hypocrisy. Go figure - I still have pleasant discussions with gentlemen like mdsocks even when we do not agree; others are there and we have exchanged views amicably even when they disagree with me. But when we ask you to follow in their manner and invite a genuine discussion, you have always pretended a scholarship you clearly do not possess - nevermind even the fact that you offer endless excuses to buy time! |

Salam. The Prophet peace be upon him used to pray 11 rakats at the most. But you can pray anywhere from 1-11, as long as you end it with an odd number(witr) and you pray them in 2's. Example 2 rakats tasleem 2 rakats tasleem 2 rakats tasleem 1 rakat tasleem finish thats 7 rakats, |
Re: Muslims: What To Do @ The Latter Part Of The Nyt? by DD5: 10:19am On Jan 25, 2008 |
babs787: the same Jesus you claim allah will send on the last day? Is allah sending him to the jews only too? |
Re: Muslims: What To Do @ The Latter Part Of The Nyt? by olabowale(m): 3:48pm On Jan 25, 2008 |
Salaam all,I do not believe that at this time of the month, the ladies can not do more than the dhikr, because if you can not pray (salah), you can not recite the Qur'an at all, with or without hold the Qur'an. Just as you can not make siam, or salah, until the time is over, you can not recite the Qur'an as well. Please check with knowledgeable people, male or female. |
