SURAH Al-Muzzammil 73: (The Wrapped up one)
This Surah is Makki, and it has 20 verses and 2 Sections.
With the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Very-Merciful

Truly, rising by night (for prayer of Tahajjud) is the most effective way to subdue (one's self) and to make speech more upright. [61]

('Truly, rising by night [for prayer of Tahajjud] is the most effective way to subdue (one's self) and to make speech more upright... 73:6). The word Nashiah, on the grammatical measure of 'Afiyah, is an infinitive noun which signifies 'to rise by night for prayer'. Sayyidah 'Aishah RA, said that Naashiatul-lail means 'to rise by night for night-prayer after sleeping'. According to this definition, Naashiatul-lail refers to Tahajjud Prayer.

The terms Naashiatul-lail of the night and Qiyam of the night are general, and may refer to any hour of the night. Thus the two terms apply equally to performing night-prayer in any part of the night, especially the one performed after 'Isha' prayer as explained by Sayyidna Hasan al-Basri RA. However, the constant practice of the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam), the overwhelming majority of the Companions and their pupils, and the righteous predecessors of the 'Ummah was that they performed this prayer in the later part of the night after awakening from sleep, and it therefore is more virtuous, more meritorious and attracts more blessings. Performing any Nafl [voluntary] prayer after 'Isha' prayer fulfills the Sunnah requirement of Nashi'ah of the night and Qiyam of the night.

A THOUGHT
 
الفشل في التخطيط يقود إلى التخطيط للفشل

The failure in planning will lead in planning to failure.

 
THE SMILE
 
The Antartian reported for her university final examination which consisted of "yes/no" type questions. She took her seat in the examination hall and stared at the question paper for five minutes.

In a fit of inspiration, she took her purse out, removed a coin and started tossing the coin and marking the answer sheet - Yes for Heads and No for Tails. Within half an hour she was all done, whereas the rest of the class was still sweating it out.

During the last few minutes, she was seen desperately throwing the coin, muttering and sweating. The moderator, alarmed, approached her and asked what was going on. Her reply was, "I finished the exam in half and hour, but I'm rechecking my answers."
