Sunnahs and manners of sleeping and waking up
Dear Islamic sisters! Let’s listen to Sunnahs and manners of sleeping and waking up from the booklet ‘101 Madani Phool’, written by Shaykh-e-Tareeqat, Ameer-e-Ahl-e-Sunnat, the founder of Dawat-e-Islami, ‘Allamah Maulana Abu Bilal Muhammad Ilyas Attar Qaadiri Razavi Ziyaee دَامَـتْ بَـرَكَـاتُـهُـمُ الْـعَـالِـيَـه:
٭Dust the bed off properly before sleeping, so that poisonous insects etc. if any, are removed.
٭Recite this Du’a before sleeping:
اَللّٰھُمَّ بِاسْمِكَ اَمُوْتُ وَ اَحْیٰ
O Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, I die and live (sleep and wake up) by Your name.
(Sahih Bukhari, vol. 4, pp. 196, Hadees 6325)
٭Do not sleep after ‘Asr, as there is a fear of losing the intellect. The Noble Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, ‘Whoever sleeps after ‘Asr and loses his intellect, should blame only himself.’
(Musnad Abi Ya’la, vol. 4, pp. 678, Hadees 4897)
٭It is Mustahab [preferable] to nap for a while in the afternoon.
(Fatawa ‘Aalamgiri, vol. 5, pp. 376)
A legendary and leading scholar of Shari’ah and Tareeqah, ‘Allamah Maulana Mufti Muhammad Amjad ‘Ali A’zami رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه says, ‘This is probably for those who remain awake at night offering Salah, doing Zikr of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, or reading and studying religious books, so that the tiredness caused by staying awake at night can be removed by the midday nap.’ (Bahar-e-Shari’at, vol. 16, pp. 79)
