NIGHT PRAYERS (Taraweeh)

Sort Stories of the Companions:
- Starting with the Story of Abu Dharr Al-Ghafari:



Abu Dharr related: ``I said to him [Holy Prophet Peace be upon him]: Present Islam to me. So when he presented it, I became a Muslim there and then. He said to me: `Abu Dharr! Keep this matter a secret, and return to your land. When you hear of our triumph, then come.' I said: `By Him Who sent you with the truth, I shall shout about this to them.' So he [Abu Dharr] went to the Ka'ba, and Quraish were there. He said: O people of Quraish! I testify that there is no god but Allah, and I testify that Muhammad is His servant and messenger.''
Bukhari, Kitab al-Manaqib; Book 61, ch. 9; vol. ii, p. 335
After His Islam:

Abu Dharr also narrated form the prophet peace be upon him: "Do not consider even the smallest good deed as insignificant; even meeting your brother with a cheerful face (is a good deed)." recorded by Imam Muslim.

A moment with the Qura’an

- Surat Yaa Seen

The Virtues of Surah Ya Sin
Al-Hafiz Abu Ya`la recorded that Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, said, "The Messenger of Allah said: (Whoever recites Ya Sin in the night, will wake up forgiven, and whoever recites Ha Mim in which Ad-Dukhan (the Smoke) is mentioned, will wake up forgiven.) Its chain of narration is good (Jayyid).

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
(1. Ya Sin.)
(2. By the Qur'an, full of wisdom,)
(3. Truly, you are one of the Messengers,)
(4. On the straight path.)
(5. Sent down by the Almighty, the Most Merciful,)
(6. In order that you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are heedless.)
(7. Indeed the Word has proved true against most of them, so they will not believe.)
(8. Verily, We have put on their necks iron collars reaching to the chins, so that their heads are raised up.)
(9. And We have put a barrier before them, and a barrier behind them, and We have covered them up, so that they cannot see.)
(10. It is the same to them whether you warn them or you warn them not, they will not believe.)
(11. You can only warn him who follows the Reminder, and fears the Most Gracious unseen. Bear you to such one the glad tidings of forgiveness, and a generous reward.)
(12. Verily, We give life to the dead, and We record that which they send before (them), and their traces and all things We have recorded with numbers in Imam Mubin (a Clear Book).)
(13. And put forward to them a similitude; the Dwellers of the Town, when there came Messengers to them.)
(14. When We sent to them two Messengers, they denied them both; so We reinforced them with a third, and they said: "Verily, we have been sent to you as Messengers.'')
(15. They said: "You are only human beings like ourselves, and the Most Gracious has revealed nothing. You are only telling lies.'')
(16. The Messengers said: "Our Lord knows that we have been sent as Messengers to you,'')
(17. "And our duty is only to convey plainly.'')
