STAGE ONE
I started praying Tahajjud because I had heard a
number of times that "Tahajud mein mangi gai
duaaen kabhi rad nahi hoti".
As the time passed, the
belief got stronger. But the one unsettling thing was that I couldn't remain consistent. I kept on missing Tahajjud prayer; like, praying for 3/4 days continually then missing it on the 4th/5th day and
with that for a whole week, unfortunately..! More
plainly, I prayed tahajjud whenever I wanted to ask
something (some "THING") from Allah ta'ala.

STAGE TWO
But soon, I came to apprehend that this is not a prayer only to make Duaas and asking Allah to fulfil your dreams. In fact, it stabilizes your mental health.
It provides tranquility to your soul when your body is in constant chaos. It's a medication for all emotional
aches and psychological pains. It recovers and revitalizes you gradually, bit by bit, day after day. I came to realize that "Tahajud is actually a Cure".

STAGE THREE
Then It became a regular practice... a habit. I began
to remain calm, serene and levelheaded. Tahajjud
became my need. I liked "the new stormless me". |
really needed to pray at midnight to keep things go
in the same manner. I wanted that peacefulness and
serenity to last forever.

STAGE FOUR
And then started a new chapter. The most beautiful
chapter. The ongoing Chapter. The phase that
everyone must go through. Tahajjud became an
obsession for me ... a Mania
(Meeting Him regularly, without a deviation or miss).
The point where I have begun to pray not only to fill
the bucket of my soul with contentment, but also to
make my Lord Happy.
a journey from "I started praying Tahajjud because." to "I stopped missing Tahajjud
because..".
I don't know at what stage you are. Or maybe you haven't initiated this journey yet. But believe me, It's a lifetime contract with Allah to get strength and gratification in return of your short time from 24hrs. Ifs a one on one meeting ina quiet atmosphere to resolve all issues going in your life. It's a pavement
to walk toward a destination where He meets you.

The Messenger of Allah :
"Our Lord, may He be blessed and exalted, comes
down to the lowest heaven every night when the
last third of the night is left, and He says: Who will
call upon Me, that I may answer him? Who will ask
of Me, that I may give him? Who will ask Me for
forgiveness, that I may forgive him?"
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (1145) and Muslim (758).
May we all become real Muhibs (devotees) of Allah.
May we all learn to feel His love for us and turn
towards sabr and shukr in all affairs.
Ameen.

السلام و علیکم ورحمتہ اللہْ

May Allah help us all. Remember me and the entire Muslim Ummah in your Duas.
Allah' slave.
