Prayers To Build Midnight: Lafaz, Art, And Mainstay In Islam

Midnight wake-up prayer (freepic)

YOGYAKARTA - When you wake up in the middle of the night it should be a moment of calm, and interestingly pray more mustajab. In Islam, there is a prayer to wake up in the middle of the night specifically which is recommended to be read as an expression of gratitude and a request to Allah.

This prayer is not only a sunnah practice, but also an opportunity to get closer to Allah. Although the lafaz is simple, the virtue is great for those who practice it sincerely.

Reporting from the NU Online page, in the book Al-Wabilus Shayyib minal Kalimit Thayyib by Ibnu Qayyim Al-Jauziyyah (Kairo, Darur Rayyan lit Turats, 1987 M/1408 H, pp. 132), he quoted a hadith from the Prophet Muhammad which was recorded in two shahih books. The prayer reads:

Let's talk about it. Let's talk about it, let's talk about it, let's talk about it.

(Alhamdulillhiril ladzmen Obviously n f Alayya h, wa adzina l bi dzikrrh)

Meaning of prayer: All praise to Allah for maintaining the health of my body, restoring my soul, and giving permission to remember Him. (HR. Bukhari and Muslim).

Meanwhile, as reported from another source (Almanhaj.or.id) when awakened at night, before carrying out any activities, as the Prophet salallahu Alaihi wasallam teaches there is a prayer full of virtue, namely:

LET'S TRY IT, LET'S TRY IT OUT, LET'S TRY IT OUT, LET'S TRY IT OUT.

Laa ilaaha illallah wahdahu laa syariikalah, lahul mulku wa lahul hamdu, wa huwa 'ala kulli syai-in qadir. Alhamdulillah, wa subhanallah, wa laa laiaha illallah, wallahu akbar, wa laa haula wa laa quwwata illa billah.

The meaning of prayer: 'No body is entitled to be properly adhered to except Allah alone, there is no ally to Him. It belongs to Him all kingdoms and praise, and He takes care of everything. All praise belongs to Allah, O my God, no body is entitled to be properly adhered to except Allah, Allah is great, has no power and strength except with the help of Allah.'

After reading this prayer, a person is advised to immediately pray or ask for forgiveness. The Prophet emphasized that whoever did it, surely Allah will grant his prayer. In fact, if you pray and continue with prayer, then the prayers will be accepted.

Waking up in the middle of the night is not just a sleep disturbance, but a golden opportunity that Allah Ta'ala provides.

Reporting from the Muslim.or.id page, Rasulullah salallahu Alaihi wasallam teaches that prayers at this time were not only heard, but also had a great opportunity to be granted.

Moreover, a silent night is a time full of blessings, when the door of grace and forgiveness of Allah is wide open to His servants who pray and pray.

At this moment, humans are given the opportunity to weaken their hearts, recognize their weaknesses, and confirm their belief that all strengths come from God.

By reading the above prayer, a Muslim should not only revive the sunnah of the Prophet, but also walk the path to His pleasure. Therefore, do not let this valuable time pass and just build it, pray, and feel the irreplaceable closeness to the Creator.
