As we continue to fast and pray during this sacred month, let us remain mindful of Allah’s mercy and forgiveness. 

May we turn to Him with sincere repentance, asking for forgiveness for our past mistakes and for guidance in the future.

Day 26 Tahajjud (Qiyamul Layl)

Tahajjud is a powerful means of seeking Allah’s forgiveness, mercy, and peace. In the last ten days of Ramadan, the reward for Tahajjud is multiplied, and our prayers are more likely to be answered.

Allah describes the night prayer in Surah As-Sajda (32:16):

"Indeed, the believers are those who, when Allah is mentioned, their hearts tremble. And when His verses are recited to them, it increases them in faith, and upon their Lord they rely."

The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said:

"The closest that a servant comes to his Lord is during the last third of the night. If you can be among those who remember Allah at that time, then do so." – (Sunan At-Tirmidhi 3579)

As we approach the final days of Ramadan, make an effort to perform Tahajjud on Day 26. Let it be a time to seek forgiveness, ask for mercy, and deepen our connection with Allah.

How to perform Tahajjud:

• The best time for Tahajjud is in the last third of the night, before Suhoor.

• You can offer at least two rakats and up to 12 rakats, including Witr.

• After your rakats, make personal duas, sincerely asking Allah for forgiveness, mercy, and guidance.

May Allah grant us the strength to wake up for Tahajjud, forgive our sins, and shower us with His mercy and blessings during these final days of Ramadan. Ameen.
