Let's start THAJJUD from Today On

How To Pray Tahajjud Salah Step By Step

To pray Tahajjud by the Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) instructions, proceed to the steps below:

1. Preparing for prayer

Plan to wake up after midnight: 

P

repare for a nighttime wake-up call before the Fajr prayer after praying the Isha prayer (for instance, you may want to set an alarm clock or have a family member agree to wake you). If at all feasible, pray the Tahajjud after midnight, especially in the last third of the night, even though it can be done at any time of the night. 
If you try your best to get up and complete the Tahajjud but end up sleeping through the night, don't feel bad about it. Ahadeeth claims that Allah remembers your sincere desire to complete Tahajjud and offers you rest as a gesture of goodwill. You will receive a reward as if your goal was achieved. However, if you decide consciously to forsake your goal to pray Tahajjud without a solid reason, such as lethargy, it may not be overlooked.

Perform Wudu after waking up: 

Get up at the appointed hour in the middle of the night. Once you've woken up, Muslims do Wudu, a ritual ablution, to purify themselves before praying or handling holy texts like the Quran. Wudu is traditionally performed by washing one's hands in the following four ways using clean water:

Washing the face

Washing the arms and hands up to and including the elbows

Wiping the head (Masah)

Washing the feet up to the ankles

Before the Tahajjud prayer, many Muslims (including the Prophet Muhammad [PBUH]) wash their mouth and teeth with a miswak.

If you've had a wet dream or discharged mani during sexual intercourse earlier in the night, you'll need to do the Ghusl, full-body ritual cleansing.

Go to a clean and quiet place to pray respectably: 

When feasible, Muslims are advised to mention Allah in clean, sacred places as a sign of respect for Allah's purity. Sit on a prayer mat with your back to the Holy Kabah in Mecca and offer your mandatory prayers as you normally would. To be clear, praying the Tahajjud does not necessitate being in a mosque or a particularly well-decorated space in your home. Clean space is all that's required; it can even be in your bedroom.

Remove all concerns about the world from your mind and heart:

Be still and contemplate the glory of your Lord when you get a chance to pray. Do not be concerned about short-lived worldly issues that pale in comparison to God's boundless knowledge and mercy. Relax and let go of your worries, dreams, and fears about the outside world. Disregard any negative feelings or thoughts that might be keeping you from your goals. As you begin to acquire a higher level of spiritual awareness, close your eyes and focus all of your concentration on your heart.

2. Saying the Thajjud

Declare your purpose to pray:

As you begin your prayer, tell yourself clearly that you are about to recite the Tahajjud. Set your intention to complete the Tahajjud in the manner that pleases you, including how many rakats you will recite and which surahs. The reason for saying the Tahajjud might range from praising Allah, thanking Him, or begging for His forgiveness. No need to say it aloud; Allah knows what you are thinking, so your goals will be plain to him as long as you are aware of them yourself.
