Do you want to catch the magic of the morning hours? Here are some steps to wake up early and catch those magical early morning hours, full of Barakah and productivity:
1 – Keep in mind the following hadith of the Rasulullah (SAS):
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى بْنُ عَطَاءٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَارَةُ بْنُ حَدِيدٍ، عَنْ صَخْرٍ الْغَامِدِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ” اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لأُمَّتِي فِي بُكُورِهَا ” . وَكَانَ إِذَا بَعَثَ سَرِيَّةً أَوْ جَيْشًا بَعَثَهُمْ فِي أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ . وَكَانَ صَخْرٌ رَجُلاً تَاجِرًا وَكَانَ يَبْعَثُ تِجَارَتَهُ مِنْ أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ فَأَثْرَى وَكَثُرَ مَالُهُ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَهُوَ صَخْرُ بْنُ وَدَاعَةَ
Narrated Sakhr al-Ghamidi: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “O Allah, bless my people in their early mornings.” When he sent out a detachment or an army, he sent them at the beginning of the day. Sakhr was a merchant, and he would send off his merchandise at the beginning of the day, and he became rich and had much wealth. Abu Dawud said: He is Sakhr b. Wada‘ah. (Sunan Abi Dawud, 2606 — Sahih)
2 – Say: “O Allah (SWT), please give me the taufeeq and the strength to wake up early. O Allah (SWT), I know that You (SWT) don’t like Your slaves to sleep late and to sleep after Fajr, so please guide me to the way that You like, which is sleeping early and waking up early.”
