One third of the night means ?????
Answers
Answer:
The time of Tahajjud prayer is after one wakes up from sleep and before the adhan of Fajr prayer. ... And the prayer most loved by Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, is the prayer of Dawud, peace be upon him. He used to sleep half the night, stand (in prayer) for one-third of it, and sleep for one-sixth of it."
Answer:
If we take the time from the adhan of maghrib till the adhan of fajr and divide that time into 3 equal parts , the last part among the three , is the part which is said to be the most blessed time for prayers.This timing varies from season to season and from region to region.
During this part of time , most of the muslims wake up for Tahajjud. Tahajjud prayer is an optional/supererogatory prayer performed during the night after waking up from sleep, because the meaning of tahajjud is to give up hujud which means sleep, that is, to give up or leave off sleep.
