Reflections on the Quran & Sunnah

(And during the night prostrate to Him and exalt Him a long [part of the] night)

As if He is saying: Spend most of the time with Me in exaltation, that is, in prayer, prostration, supplication, seeking forgiveness, speaking, and intimate conversation: "O disciples, speak to Allah more than you speak to people." For this time is His alone, not for yourself, nor for the creation.

And the day is for yourself and the creation, with the intention for Him in all that you do, in sincerity and patience.

— Shoroog Almehmadi
