prayer

The best prayer after the fard

أَفْضَلُ الصَّلَاةِ بَعْدَ الْفَرِيضَةِ صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ

Afdalu-s-salati ba'da-l-faridati salatu-l-layl.

"The best prayer after the obligatory is the night prayer."

Narrated by Abu Hurayrah. Sahih Muslim 1163

A short reflection

When the house is quiet, two rak'ahs are disproportionately heavy. Tahajjud is where the saints got made.
