Imaam Ibn Qudaamah Al-Maqdisi -rahimahullaah-
Said:
Means of Qiyam Al-Layl.
Know verily that, Qiyam Al-Layl is difficult except who Allah, Most High, Has bestowed His mercy upon can be able to maintain and remain steadfast on it.
However, there are some rules in which if one Incessantly stick to them, will assist one in observing Qiyam Al-Layl. Among those rules are;
1). One should not eat too much in the night.
2. One should not overburden himself with too much work within the day.
3. Taking afternoon naps.
4. He should safeguard himself from any form of bidi’ or malice to fellow Muslims.
5. Knowing the virtues of Qiyam Al-Layl and what Allah, the Most High, Has prepared for those who always observe it.
Lastly, Jabir radiyallaahu anhu reported that he heard the Messenger of Allah sallallaahu alayhi wasallam said:
“There is an hour in the night, in which no Muslim individual will ask Allah for good in this world and the next without giving it to Him, and that applies every night.”
Transmitted and recorded by Imaam Muslim in his ‘Sahih#757.

Allaahu A’alam! Baarakallaahu feekum!
