It is important for you to get a good night's sleep to prepare you for your day.It's important to sleep to help your brain function and increase your physical and mental health.In Islam, sleep is encouraged in order to function properly, but there are certain rules that come with it to sleep peacefully.
Step 1: Understand the importance of sleep.
Everyone agrees that sleep is important for your well-being.Teenagers should get 10 hours of sleep, while an average adult should only get 8 hours.Islam encourages a person to sleep in order to function well in the day and safely work since lack of sleep has many negative effects.The Prophet told one of his companions, "Offer prayers and also sleep at night, as your body has a right on you."The Prophet told anyone who felt sleepy while praying to go to bed.A woman from the tribe of Bani Asad was sitting with the wife of the Prophet.The Prophet came and asked, "Who is this?"She doesn't sleep at night because she is praying.The Prophet said that Allah never gets tired of giving rewards until you stop doing good deed.
Step 2: Wudu can be used to cleanse yourself.
Wudu is an Islamic ritual that involves washing body parts with water.It is Sunnah to also perform it before sleeping.The Messenger of Allah told people to perform Wudu whenever they wanted to go to bed.The Prophet said that sleeping in a state of wudu is equivalent to standing up all night in prayers.
Step 3: Before bed, do your normal routine.
Dressing in more comfortable clothing is included.washing your face, applying any products, taking a warm bath, brushing your teeth, etc.Islam requires cleanliness and hygiene.The Messenger of Allah said that purity is half of iman.Before falling asleep, you should brush your teeth.The Prophet said, "The miswak is a twig used for tooth brushing and it cleans and purifies the mouth and pleases the Lord."
Step 4: Pray for him.
Many Muslims find it comforting to remember Allah after a long day.Salatul-Isha is the last and fifth mandatory prayer of the day.You can pray two to twelve rak'at during the night.The night prayer is a voluntary Sunnah prayer.The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "In Paradise, there is a castle reserved for those who perform Tahajjud Salah."Some people prefer to wake up before Fajr.If you are exhausted by the end of the day, this is a good idea.Salatul Witr means praying before Fajr.The man asked the Prophet how the night prayers were done.He said, "Two by two, then when you fear that dawn is about to break, pray Witr with one rak'ah."See al-Fath on 3-20.It is a good time to make dua, to ask Allah for help and guidance, and to seek forgiveness for any mistakes you have made.
Step 5: After Salatul-Isha, go to sleep.
To wake up early in the morning, you should go to bed after performing your night prayers.The Prophet said that one should not sleep before the night prayer or have discussions after it.Meeting with friends and family during the night is discouraged unless it is an emergency.The Prophet said that doing work in the early morning is a blessing.It's a good idea to use the night as a time for sleep.
Step 6: To wake up for the prayer, set an alarm.
Usually performed an hour before sunrise, Fajr is the first and earliest prayer of the day.If you want to wake up on time, set an alarm a few minutes before the prayer starts.The Messenger of Allah said that whoever performs the prayer before the rising of the sun and before its setting will not enter hell.Getting up for Fajr is a challenge for many Muslims in the summer if they are not used to waking up so early.You can wake up easier in the morning if you go to bed right after Salatul Isha.Never be tempted to miss Fajr.Remember that prayer is the first thing that will be looked at on the Day of Judgement because Allah doesn't ask for much in return for everything he provides.
Step 7: Relax as you prepare to sleep.
Prepare yourself for sleep by creating a calm atmosphere.Try to make the environment as quiet as possible by Dim the lights, blow off candles, and turn off screens.You want your surroundings to be calm and quiet so you can fall asleep quickly.
Step 8: Before you sleep, check your home.
Before sleeping, check to make sure all the doors and windows of the house are open.Lamps, candles, and other hot-burning lights should be turned off.Food and drinks should be covered and kept out of sight.
Step 9: Before going to sleep, avoid heavy meals.
Your body can't digest a big meal while you are laying down, so you will stay up a few hours.Dinners should be light and simple to make it easier to sleep.The Messenger of Allah said eating too much is a misfortune.The believer and the disbeliever eat the same amount of food to fill their stomachs.
Step 10: Do you know how to sleep in Islam?
Sleeping doesn't have to be done at night.Having short naps during the day can help you sleep better.Naps should be no longer than 30 minutes, since napping for too long will make you sleepy when you wake up.It is Sunnah to sleep in the afternoon.During this time, many hadiths have mentioned Prophet Muhammad and his companions.
Step 11: You can sleep in a clean area.
If the bed is clean and comfortable, you can sleep anywhere.Sunnah requires you to dust your bed lightly to make sure it is clean before you sleep.When one of you goes to his bed, be sure to dust off the inside of his lower garment for he doesn't know what came onto it after he left it.You can see how to wash bedding.
Step 12: Know the position of sleeping.
You have to face the Qibla to sleep on your right side.When the Prophet Muhammad lay down to sleep, he put his hand under his cheek on his right side.Sleeping on your stomach is not permissible in Islam.When Allah's Messenger saw a man lying on his stomach, he said, "This is a method of lying down which Allah does not like."Temporal Dyspnea and/or neck pain can be caused by sleeping on your stomach.If you want to sleep in other positions, you can either sleep on your back or on the right side.
Step 13: Go to bed and read a few chapters of the Quran.
Before falling asleep, there are many different chapters to recite.Reciting these chapters may help you fall asleep with ease.Since the last three Quls are the best for protection before falling asleep, you may choose to recite all of the below chapters before sleeping.Prophet Muhammad said, "If you recite it, there will be a guardian appointed over you from Allah who will protect you during the night, and Shaytaan will not be able to come near you until morning."It defended whoever said it until he got to Paradise.Tabrani in Al-Awsat & Ibn Mardawaith was written by Fath al Qadir.The Messenger of Allah said to me: "Recite Qul yaa ayyuha'l-kaafiroon."It was said that the Prophet (peace be upon him) went to bed every night.Qul a'oodhu bi rabb il-falaq.Qul a'oodhu bi rabb il-naas is also known as the Quran.There is a poem called Surah-An Nas.He would wipe them over his body, starting with his head and face and moving to the front and back.Bukhari
Step 14: Make a song.
The common sleeping Dua is Allahumma bismika amutu wa ahya, which means 'O Allah, with Your name I die and live'.There are many sleeping Duas that can be said before sleeping.When the Prophet wanted to lie down to sleep, he used to place his right hand under his cheek.4/311: Abu Dawud.Before you go to sleep, add your own words.Thank Allah for guiding you to Islam and for helping you through the day.Ask Him to keep you firm in your belief, ask for protection and comfort, and finally acknowledge any sins that you may have committed.
Step 15: Know how to sleep.
It can be hard to fall asleep.If you have trouble falling asleep, you can do Dhikr and make Dua.I complained to the Messenger of Allah about insomnia that I was having.He said "O Allah, the stars have come out and eyes have closed, and You are the Ever Living, The One Who sustains and protects all that exists."O Sustainer, calm my night and let my eyes sleep.O Allah, take away my pain.If you have trouble falling asleep almost every day and it's affecting your daily routine, it might be time to take a trip to your doctor.They can give you remedies to help you fall asleep.You should avoid activities and environments that keep you awake.Technology screens keep you up while it's tempting.Your brain knows it is time to sleep if the sleeping environment is dark and quiet.The Shaytaan is close by when you sleep.Many people are vulnerable to insinuating thoughts during sleep.Seek refuge with Allah and these will be protected against.
Step 16: Know how to deal with a nightmare.
Scary dreams and nightmares are common when sleeping, but they can still be frightening.The Prophet told Abu Qutaadah that good and bad dreams come from Allah.If anyone of you sees a bad dream which makes him afraid, let him spit to his left and seek refuge with Allah.There is no shame or sin attached to unmarried Muslims because Allah has created wet dreams to release their sexual tension.
Step 17: It's a good idea to avoid over-sleeping.
You don't have to sleep for a certain number of hours.Some people can function with less, but others need more to do their job.It is not permissible to sleep longer than necessary and miss your prayers because of sleep.If you want to wake up and fall asleep at a certain time, you have to create a sleep schedule.
Step 18: Wake up by remembering Allah.
It is a blessing to have another day to live.You can remember Allah by making Dua.When waking up, the common Dua said "Alhamdu lillaahil-lathee 'ahyaanaa ba'da maa 'amaatnaa wa'ilayhi-nnushooru'".
