The Night Prayers – Qiyam & Tarawih

Among the most rewarding and spiritually fulfilling moments in a Muslim’s life are those blessed hours spent in the stillness of night—standing in prayer, whispering supplications to the Lord of the worlds, glorifying Him with sincerity, and humbly seeking His forgiveness and mercy.

The voluntary night prayer (qiyām al-layl) is a powerful act of worship, essential to one’s spiritual, moral, and even physical well-being. Yet, despite its immense virtues, it remains largely neglected and misunderstood by many Muslims today.

This book has two main objectives:

1. To provide a comprehensive guide on qiyām and related topics, rooted in the Qur’an, the Sunnah, and the understanding of the Salaf.

2. To present two influential works by the esteemed scholar Muḥammad Nāṣir al-Dīn al-Albānī (may Allah have mercy on him):

   • Ṣalāt al-Tarāwīḥ

   • Qiyām Ramaḍān

Though often associated with the month of Ramaḍān, the night prayer is a year-round opportunity for nearness to Allah. This book is a timeless companion—one to keep beside your pillow, and to reach for whenever you rise in the night seeking the sweetness of devotion.

A gift for the heart and soul—may it be a means of light in your nights, in shāʾ Allāh.
