Frequently Asked Questions

Tahajjud is a night prayer that you do after getting up from sleep. It’s a special time, really peaceful, and many people feel closest to Allah then. While it’s said that dua for stress anxiety and other troubles is more likely to be heard at this time, there’s no guarantee every tahajjud dua gets accepted the way we want. Sometimes, Allah answers in ways we don’t expect or gives us what’s best for us later.
