Imaam Ibn Qudaamah Al-Maqdisi -rahimahullaah-
Said:
The third wird of the night.
This wird consists making witr prayer before sleeping. However, in the case of one who used to offer Qiyam Al-Lay, for him to delay it is better and beloved.
In this context, Aisha radiyallaahu anha said:
” The Messenger of Allah sallallaahu alayhi offered witr prayer at different nights at various hours extending (from ‘Isha prayer) up to to the last hour of the night.”
Transmitted and recorded by Imaam Bukhaari in his ‘Sahih’#996 and Imaam Muslim in his ‘Sahih’#745.
The fourth wird of the night.
This wird has do with sleeping and its morals. We counted it among the awrad because if one applies its morals, it becomes an act of worship.
In this regard, Mu’adh radiyallaahu anhu said:
” I seek for Allah’s reward for my sleep the way I hope for His reward for my standing in prayers.”
Transmitted and recorded by Imaam Bukhaari in his ‘Sahih#6923 and Imaam Muslim in ‘Sahih#1733.
Among the Adaab of sleeping, is for one to sleep in purity (I.e making ablution before sleeping).
It is reported from Aisha radiyallaahu anha who said:
” Whenever the Messenger of Allah sallallaahu alayhi wasallam intends to sleep, he do perform ablution like that for the prayer. ”
Transmitted and recorded by Imaam Bukhaari in his ‘Sahih#288 and Imaam Muslim in his ‘Sahih#305.
Allaahu A’alam! Baarakallaahu feekum!
