[The Prophet – salam to him – used to sleep in the first half of the night, and pray the ‘additional voluntary prayers’ in the other half of it, and following the prayers he mentioned God with glorification and praise.

1. O you [: Mohammed] enwrapped in your raiment [preparing to sleep!]
2. Keep vigil [for reciting the Quran] all, except a little of, the night.
3. A half of the [night], or less than a little of the [half.]
4. Or more than the [half], and recite the Quran in piece-meal.
5. We will certainly cast on you heavy words.
6. [The righteous work] that you perform by night is more effective [on people], and the speech is more upright.
7. Surely, you have a long day time during which you may glorify [your Lord] as you like.)
