#RamadanDailyDigest: Muslims' Unequalled Passion For Tahajjud In Last 9 Or 10 Nights Of Ramadan

Muslims' unequalled passion for Tahajjud during the last 9 or 10 nights of Ramadan fasting is delightful, with much lessons in it.

Muslims' unequalled passion for Tahajjud prayers are crystal clear during I'tikaaf. As explained in previous articles of Ramadan Daily Digest, Tahajjud is the late-night prayer observed by Muslims. In the month of Ramadan however, Muslims tend to dedicate a good number of hours to observing Tahajjud, especially during I'tikaaf

I'tikaaf simply means seclusion, particularly in the Masjid. The purpose of I'tikaaf is to move closer to Allaah through fervent supplications and prayers. In the month of Ramadan, the last 9 or 10 nights are significant for I'tikaaf. Based on the wisdom behind moving closer to Allaah via I'tikaaf and increasing spirituality, Muslims' unequalled passion for Tahajjud is unmatched during the last one-third nights of Ramadan.

Another factor for Muslims' unequalled passion for Tahajjud is because of Laylatul Qadr. Laylatul Qadr translates in English as 'Night of Power' or Night of Destiny' or 'Night of Majesty.' The significance of Laylatul Qadr is that anyone who devouts himself to sincere worship of Allaah during the last one-third nights of Ramadan will get the reward of Laylatul Qadr. The reward is that it is accounted that such a blessed Muslim worships Allaah for more than 1,000 months. The evidence for this is in chapter 97 (Suuratul Qadr) of the Glorious Qur'an named after Laylatul Qadr.

Laylatul Qadr is all about Allaah taking an annual decision in the life of every human being on earth. It is important to be part of the people whom Allaah will be considering for a prosperous year going forward. This will be possible by believing in Allaah and worshipping Him wholeheartedly during the last nine or 10 nights of Ramadan fasting.

Muslims' unequalled passion for Tahajjud in last 9 or 10 nights of Ramadan

Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) informed Muslims that they should search for Laylatul Qadr on the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, and 29th nights of the last one-third nights of Ramadan, which are from Ramadan 21-29 or 21-30, as the case might be. A good number of Islamic scholars believe that Laylatul Qadr falls often on the 27th night of Ramadan. The important thing is for all Muslims to remain steadfast in their worship as Ramadan clocks Day 26 after sunset today.

Therefore, Tahajjud, I'tikaaf, and L,aylatul Qadr are three vital words united by the last odd nights in the last nine or ten nights of the holy month of fasting. Muslims should dedicate themselves to all that will make their Tahajjud accepted by Allaah.
