The Reward of Praying in the Hours of the Night​

​

The Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
ينزل ربنا تبارك وتعالى كل ليلة إلى سماء الدنيا حين يبقى ثلث الليل الآخر. يقول: من يدعوني فأستجيب له؟ من يسألني فأعطيه؟ من يستغفرني فأغفر له؟
“Our Lord, Blessed and Exalted, descends every night to the lowest heaven when the last part of the night remains. He proclaims: Who is calling upon Me that I may answer him? Who is asking from Me that I may give him? Who is seeking My forgiveness that I may forgive him?”
