My friend has problem to wake up for fajr prayer, kindly someone guide him how to get rid of this problem. 1 - Make dua for it. Read from fazail e amal the virtues of salaat and dangers of neglecting salaat. 2 - 5-10 minutes ponder over the purpose of your creation, you were created for what reason, to do what? Worship Allah swt. This is your purpose to live. 3 - Are there other people who pray in your house? Maybe you can do Salaat-Pool like car pool. Meaning, ask them to wake you up. 4 - If possible try to go out 40 days in jamaat. If you cant do 40 days then try to do 3 days every month. This will help a lot. 5 - Sleep earlier. Do not drink any caffiene after 7pm. 6 - Make dua to wake up on time. 7 - Set an alarm. Set a back up alarm 5 minutes later. 8 - If you miss salaat then forgo breakfast for that day and pray 8 rakaats nafil as a punishment. Anyday you miss Fajr saalat you will not eat breakfast that day and you will pray an additional 8 rakaats nafil as punishment for missing salaat and you will say to yourself "This is punishment for missing my Fajr salaat." Nafs will be content with this punishment the first couple of times but you have to strictly follow this punishment every time you miss Fajr, nafs will take a blow. 9 - Recite Surah Zilzaal at bedtime in this manner: First recite Auzoobillahi minash shaytaanir rajim, bismillahir rahmanir rahim. Then recite Surah Zilzaal once. Recite it again without reciting Auzoobillah nor Bismillah. Recite it again without reciting Auzoobillah nor Bismillah. So you will recite Surah Zilzaal 3 times with Auzoobillah and Bismillah only the first time. Then say, "Wake (say your full name) at (mention 5 minutes before the specific time you want to wake up)." You have to be specific about the time, example: if you want to wake up at 530am you have to say 530am. "Wake Zaid up at 530am." Then go to sleep. Insha'Allah you will rise for Fajr salaat. *You will have to see what is the reason why you are missing Fajr salaat and try to fix that issue. |

Do what I do, just dont sleep at night. Spend time on SF and Youtube and read newspaper all night. No, I am just kidding, you will get sick that way. Here are some tips: maashaaAllah thats a nice read. I also read that Ibn Abbas (RA) said that when we want to wake up for specific time, if we read the last two ayats of surah Kahf before we go to bed, we will wake up inshaaAllah and this has been proved to be right for many. Wassalam |

My friend has problem to wake up for fajr prayer, kindly someone guide him how to get rid of this problem. Tips to Wake up for Fajr Twelve Tips to Wake up for Fajr in the Light of Qur’an, Hadith and the Teachings of Our Elders 1. To supplicate to Allah with the following رب اجعلني مقيم الصلوة و من ذريتي ربنا و تقبل دعاء ربنا اغفرلي ولوالدي وللمؤمنين يوم يقوم الحساب By the blessings of this du’a, Insha Allah you and your children will be granted the ability to be punctual with your prayers. 2. If it’s convenient then to take a nap in the afternoon which is also a sunnah and aids in causing a person to wake up for Fajr. 3. To have dinner early and to not overeat. Mawlana Thanwi (RA) has written that when a person eats, there comes a moment where a question arises in his mind should I continue eating or quit? The moment this question arises, a person should stop eating. 4. To not drink water before going to sleep unless there is a dire need to do so and if so, then to drink a small amount. 5. To go to sleep early otherwise the above-mentioned points will be of no benefit. 6. To perform those acts which are sunnah prior to going to sleep, refer to Beautiful Sunnahs of the Beloved Nabi (S), by Hazrat Mawlana Shah Hakeem Muhammad Akhtar Sahib (DB). 7. Prior to going to sleep tell someone to wake you up for Fajr. 8. To use an alarm clock and to put it at such a distance that one has to get up and out of their bed and walk to turn it off, by doing so the stupor of sleep will wear off. 9. To recite verse number 127 of Surah Baqarah or the last four verses of Surah Kahf before going to sleep. By reciting these verses if a person intends to wake up at a particular time, Insha Allah one will wake up on that time. 10. Immediately upon waking up, to sufficiently rub your eyes according to the sunnah, this too will cause the effects of sleep to wear off. 11. If possible, upon waking up after wiping ones’ face with ones’ hands recite verses 190-194 of Surah Al-Imran. This is also a sunnah. ‘Ulema have written that through their experience this practice also causes the effects of sleep to go away. 12. Upon awakening from ones sleep, using ones strength and willpower immediately stand up. Never fall victim to the ploy of ones nafs that I will wake up in a little while otherwise one will miss their salaah. |
