Make standing at night necessary upon yourself
O devotees of the Prophet!
How should we spend our days and nights? The fourth point in this regard is
that prior to sleeping at night, appoint at least one hour in which you will
only engage in worship and do nothing else. Then try your utmost to spend this
hour in worship. If possible, appoint a separate pair of clothing for this
time, otherwise, wear clean clothes, make fresh wuḍūˈ,
apply fragrance, and worship Allah Almighty for at least an hour.
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
Encouragement for Pious Deed Number 5
Dear Islamic brothers! In order to attain the mindset to perform good deeds, stay away from sins and spend your days and nights in doing righteous deeds, become affiliated with the religious environment of Dawat-e-Islami, take part in the 12 religious works of the zeyli halqa, travel in the Madani qafilahs, and fill in the 72 Pious Deeds booklet. The 72 Pious Deeds booklet given to us by the renowned spiritual guide and leader of Ahl al-Sunnah, Mawlana Ilyas Attar al-Qadiri دَامَـتْ بَـرَكَـاتُـهُـمُ الْـعَـالِـيَـهْ, is an excellent means of becoming pious.
Pious Deed number five of these 72 states: “Today, after each prayer, did you recite Ayat al-Kursi, Surah al-Ikhlāṣ and Tasbīḥ Fāṭimah رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهَا at least once?”
This is such an amazing pious deed that through acting upon it, not only will we be able to offer all five prayers consistently, but we will get into the habit of performing abundant dhikr after prayer. There are also
