Quotes About Salat at-Tahajjud (Voluntary Late Night Prayer)

“The dua made at tahajjud (voluntary night prayer) is like an arrow which does not miss its target.

Imam ash-Shafi`i

“These rakaat (units of prayer) can save the future of one's children! For Abdullah ibn Masud used to pray during the night while his little son was sleeping, and he would look at him and say: "For your sake, my son!" And he would cry and recite His words, exalted and high: "And their father was a righteous man..." (Quran 18:82)

Muhammad al-Ghazali

“Whoever continuously abandons the sunnah (voluntary) prayers, then this shows a weakness in his religion.

Ibn Taymiyyah

“On that Day, we will see the true reality. On that Day, we will realize that two rak`at (units) of prayer were greater than everything in the heavens and the earth. We will realize the priceless check that was left on our doorstep every night as we slept. There will come a day when we would give up everything under the sky just to come back and pray those two rak`at.

Yasmin Mogahed

“Sufyan Ath-Thawri said: "Du`a' on that night is more beloved to me than salah". He meant that do make much du`a' is better than a salah that doesn't include much du`a'. And if he recited [i.e. performed salah] and made du`a' that would be good and the Prophet ﷺ used to perform tahajjud in the nights of Ramadan and he would recite a rolling recitation and wouldn't pass a verse that mentioned mercy except that he asked [for it from Allah] and he wouldn't pass a verse that mentioned punishment except that he sought protection [from Allah]. Thus he would combine salah, recitation, du`a', and reflection. And this is the best and the most complete form of good deeds in the last ten nights [of Ramadan] and all other times.

Sheikh Ahmad al-Ajmi

“Wish to have a private conversation with Allah? Wake up an hour before Fajr and lower your head to the ground in tahajjud...

Yasir Qadhi

“The sweetness of tahajjud is found in prolonged sujood.
