THE VOICE

Prayer is better than sleep Make first things first and the call to morning Fajr prayer says, prayer is better than sleep. You think it means just sleeping in bed, some of you, it means the rest that you need and that you like for your personal body, that’s what it means. So you could be resting your body t.v., you could be resting dancing, you could be resting singing, that’s the rest of your body, that’s resting your body. Resting your personal life, your mortal life, your carnal self. So the pleasures of the carnal self that’s what it means just like sleep and eating and a number of things that we have to have for this physical body. But when you are attending to those needs it's like sleep, the spirit of Allah(swt) sleeps when you are doing those things just like your body sleeps at night in the bed
