Assalaamualikum Friend,
Habit #2: Offer the Tahjud Prayers
As narrated by `Abdullah bin `Amr bin Al-`As: Allah’s Messenger (saw) told me, “The most beloved prayer to Allah is that of David and the most beloved fasts to Allah are those of David. He used to sleep for half of the night and then pray for one third of the night and again sleep for its sixth part and used to fast on alternate days.” (Bukhari)
The Prophet was known to pray a lot during the night. Sometimes, he would offer up to thirteen rakats, and there are accounts of him reciting several chapters of the holy Qur’an in one night of prayer.
