The Isha Prayer Struggle - Read Our Analysis




The Isha prayer struggle is the struggle to stay awake in order to observe the Isha prayer before sleeping after a long day of work, travel et al. 





The Isha prayer struggle is the struggle not to rush through your Isha prayers because you are tired and you just want to sleep. The Isha prayer struggle is the struggle to be focused during the Isha prayer like you were during the other four salats.





For non-Muslims who want to understand what the Isha Prayer struggle is, let us try to break it down for you, we (Muslims) have to pray five times throughout the day from morning till night. 

Qur'an: 51: 56: "And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me."

We would say the first three prayers from early morning (fajr) till the late afternoon prayer (asr) are conveniently spaced but the last two prayers, the Maghrib (evening prayer) and the Isha (night) prayer are right after each other. Most times, by the time you are done with the Maghrib prayer, it is time for the Isha prayer.





The fact that the period after Maghrib is more or less the same period of time when you have dinner and after dinner you drift into this relaxed, tired state that makes you just want to chill or sleep without doing anything else that is physically tasking leads to the Isha prayer struggle because ideally, you shouldn't sleep without observing your Isha prayers, herein lies the struggle.

Abu Huraira (Radhiallahu 'anhu) said : “My Khalil (friend) (the Prophet Shalallahu ‘alaihi wa Salam) advised me to observe three things and I shall not leave them till I die: 1. “To observe Saum (fasting) three days every (lunar) month; 2.” To offer the Duha prayer; 3. To offer Witr prayer before sleeping.” Naratted by Bukhari and Muslim.

We have lost count of the number times that we slept off and was jolted awake by that unsettled feeling you have when you fall asleep without saying the Isha prayers (Muslims know that feeling) and we had to forcefully get out of bed so as to do the compulsory ablution before observing the Isha prayer in the middle of the night!

Anas related that the Prophet (saws) said, "Whoever forgets a prayer should pray it when he remembers it, and there is no expiation for it save that." Related by al-Bukhari and Muslim.

One of the reasons why we have not made more of an effort to overcome the Isha prayer struggle at the early part of the night is because the Prophet (Peace be upon him) has advised us against praying whilst feeling drowsy:

It was narrated from Anas that the Prophet (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) said: “If any one of you feels drowsy when praying, let him sleep so that (when he gets up) he knows what he is reciting.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, al-Wudoo’, 206).

In another hadeeth: “If anyone of you becomes drowsy whilst he is praying, let him sleep until he is refreshed, because if any one of you prays whilst he is drowsy he may not understand what he is saying and he may want to pray for forgiveness but may insult himself by mistake instead.” (al-Bukhaari, 212; Muslim, 786).                                                                                       
Another reason why we have not made more of an effort to overcome the Isha prayer struggle at the early part of the night is because the period for the Isha prayers is from the early part of the night until midnight so for us it's a win-win situation.

The Prophet (Blessings and peace of ALLAH be upon him) is reported to have said: “ If it were not to be a hardship upon my nation. I would order them to delay the night prayer until a third or a half of the night had passed”. 

It is Sunnah to observe Isha prayer later, after one-third of the night has passed because the Prophet (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) delayed one night until they said, “O Messenger of ALLAH, the women and children have fallen asleep,” so he went out and led them in prayer, and said, “This would be its time, were that not too difficult for my ummah.”

After being in relationship with Wilson for seven years,he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to someone online and she suggested that I should contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that don’t believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I meant a spell caster called Dr Zuma zuk and I email him, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened, that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him, that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem and who is different from all the fake ones out there. Anybody could need the help of the spell caster, his email: spiritualherbalisthealing@gmail.com or WhatsApp him +15068001647
you can email him if you need his assistance in your relationship or anything. CONTACT HIM NOW FOR SOLUTION TO ALL YOUR PROBLEMS

I got diagnosed with herpes simplex virus after i had finally graduated from college, after years of working full-time and being a single mother. Eventually it was my faith that got me through the difficult times. I decided this would not ruin me. I returned to my hometown, reconnected with family and friends, I took the step of going to a clinic, I started to go for regular check-ups and it wasn't long before I was on meds. But all this didn’t work out, I started reading articles on herpes simplex virus online and alternative medications until I met Dr muthuka on youtube who helped me cure my herpes with his 14 days herbal cure. Thanks. you are amazing Dr muthuka   Contact Dr Muthuka details:via email; muthukaherbalhome@gmail.com   or call or whatsapp him +2349039175109 God we Bless You

I'm Thomas Yi from the United States. I started playing lottery games 3 years ago and I have never won big. I went online to seek help on how I can win big in my lottery games and I saw some nice reviews about Dr Amber who has made different people huge winners in their lottery games with his prayers. I gave it a try and I contacted Dr Amber who told me how and what to do before I can become a big lotto winner and I accepted. He made special prayers for me at his temple and gave me the required numbers to play the lotto game and when I played it, I won a massive $235.4 million POWERBALL jackpot. I was so happy and I chose to receive my winnings in a one-time, lump-sum payment of $160,038,447.27 at Florida Lottery Headquarters in Tallahassee and the balance was given to the store that I bought & played the game from. I would love other people to seek help from him and he can be contacted through WhatsApp/call/text via this number +1 (406) 646-2222 or email on: amberlottotemple@yahoo.com

I never thought I would be known for winning the lottery in NEW YORK. I am so grateful to DR AMBER for all he has done for me. I wouldn't have been able to win a CENT on the lottery if not for the help of DR AMBER who gave me perfect winning numbers to play the lottery that made me the winner of $10,000,000 DOLLARS in 2019. I got in touch with him again on his webpage: [ https://amberlottotemple.com ] in request for sure winning numbers to play the lottery. He told me what to do and I did all he instructed & required to get the spell prepared for me and within 3 days, he gave me the perfect numbers to play the lottery and could you believe that I won $10,000,000 DOLLARS after playing the lottery making it the second time I have won and I haven't finished spending the last one I won in 2019. DR AMBER is truly a God sent and I highly recommend him to anyone that needs help to win the lottery. You can message him on WhatsApp with +1 318-306-5044 or email: amberlottotemple@yahoo.com

I want to express how grateful I am to CYBERCRDITGURU a credible and reliable hacker who helped recovered the $45,000 I lost to scammers online and also hacked into my cheating husband’s mobile phone and social media accounts. I am married with 3 kids although my husband is extravagant and cheats on me with a lot of side chicks, he hardly comes home. Then I saw this investment platform online and decided to invest the sum of $45,000 to it, with the intention to grow it but I never got my money back neither capital nor profit. “I was scammed”. However, I discovered CYBERCREDITGURU through positive reviews read on MerchantCircle and reached out to them immediately on CYBERCREDITGURU (AT) GMAIL DOT COM and phone/text: +1 (650) 439 0624 and they helped recovered my lost $45,000 and helped me monitor my husband’s calls and social media accounts. I now have my husband back. I can’t thank them enough but give them a 5-star review as a token of my sincere appreciation. I strongly recommend them to anyone with related issues. Here is there contact again: CYBERCREDITGURU (AT) GMAIL DOT COM and phone/text: +1 (650) 439 0624
I have been unlucky playing the Lottery over the years. I couldn't take the pain anymore and I searched for help online. I saw random positive reviews of DR AMBER saying how he has been helpful with his spells. I visited his webpage: ( amberlottotemple.com ) and he told me what was required to get what I seek for done and I accepted. He did a reading for me that made it clear to him that I was going to become a MEGA JACKPOT winner and he gave me the right numbers to play the Lottery. I had faith in him and I went back to the store a few days later to confirm if I had won and while the clerk was checking my ticket, I heard her say ‘Oh my God! I looked up and saw the Big Winner screen of $36,449,852.60. I was completely shocked, but calm. It feels amazing – I can’t imagine this shift in my life and I want to appreciate this man DR AMBER for his help. It’s not everybody that is naturally lucky to win the Lottery but the solution to win is DR AMBER. For more info Call/Text/Telegram +1 808 481 5132 or E-mail: amberlottotemple@yahoo.com

I've always dreamt of winning BIG in the lottery. I surfed the internet for help to win the lottery massively and I was directed to the DR Amber website. I had a chat with him about what I needed and he assured me that his spell will make me become a lottery winner. He got back to me after 3 days with the numbers that I needed to play the lottery and told me to believe in myself. I felt enveloped by the control of the spell. I took his words and played the Mega Millions Lottery. Two days later, I was sent an email that I've won the sum of 107 Million Dollars. I was shocked and couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing. Immediately I was given the cash prize, I stopped working. I want to say a very big thank you to DR Amber for helping people like us who really need help. Now I know that there's absolutely nothing too hard for DR Amber to do. To get in touch with him, email : amberlottotemple@yahoo.com or click his webpage URL___ amberlottotemple.com
