Do these 9 After Fajr, watch the blessings | Sheikh Samih Jad
By Samih Jad
Summary
## Key takeaways - **Don't Sleep After Fajr**: Don't sleep after Fajr to achieve blessings and change your life, as the Prophet did not sleep after it and Allah gives baraka in the early morning. Non-Muslims wake early realizing its power, and sleeping early makes you wake like a horse. [00:41], [01:46] - **Praise Allah on Waking**: As soon as you wake up, praise Allah and recall His blessings like life, food, shelter, and health, reciting 'Alhamdulillah' for them. Allah says if you are thankful, He shall increase you—this heavenly law changes your life. [04:30], [06:17] - **Glorify Allah Pre-Sunrise**: Glorify Allah with 'Subhan Allah' before sunrise and sunset as Allah commanded, joining every creation in tasbih for rizq. The Prophet said abundant tasbih in the morning suffices you from worries. [07:09], [08:08] - **Recite Quran for Barakah**: Recite Quran in the morning—even a few verses—before leaving home, as it brings multiple blessings to your house and day. One scholar noticed more baraka the more he recited. [10:00], [10:50] - **Pray Duha for Protection**: Pray Duha salah (2-4 rakahs before zawal) in the morning routine for protection through the day and accepted dua equivalent to 360 charities. It takes just 5-10 minutes but massively changes your life. [15:27], [15:58] - **Spend in Morning for Barakah**: Spend in the beginning of the day on family, poor, or even animals like feeding cats or birds, making the intention for Allah. Allah says 'you spend, I will spend on you,' bringing baraka even for food in your wife's mouth. [19:08], [21:13]

them are short. The last two especially have so many secrets. So we're going to focus inshallah on all of them. The last
two we will talk more and give you so many of the of the secrets of those last two inshallah tala. The first thing count with me don't sleep after what is the first thing that if you hold to it
you'll start to see so many blessings don't sleep after fud. A lot of people they sleep after fud. Well it's not it's not haram to sleep after faj. We have to say that it's not haram. It is allowed but if you want to achieve if you want
to have blessings if you want to change your life then make sure to not to sleep after fud. And the sunnah ofasam
after fud. And the sunnah ofasam is that he is not to sleep after sallallahu alaihi wasallam. And the
ofasool wasallam also and he sallallahu alaihi wasallam mentioned he mentioned Allah gives lots of baraka lots of
blessings to the ummah in the early time of the morning. It is sad to say that we see people who are not Muslims at all.
They are not Muslims at all. people in
in the west in America in uh in in Canada in Australia in Europe etc. They knew the power and the secrets of waking up early. They themselves realize. So
up early. They themselves realize. So
you see them from the day starts very early for them from even the time before the time of that the of the Muslims they are awake and they run walking around
and they start their day early and they sleep early also. Some say it's hard you know it's hard if you slept early you will wake up like a horse. If you sleep early you'll wake up and before you will
be awake. Subhan Allah.
be awake. Subhan Allah.
of how our parents, our grandparents, they used to do and keep this in mind.
The prophet passed by after she slept for a while and he said, "Wake up and witness the risk of Allah."
This is the time where the the provisions are distributed. You when you start early, Subhan Allah, you find so many blessings and activeness in your mind, your brain after after sleep,
after you slept well. Do you see that you are so conscious and you're so focused and you can achieve the best time to study the time after fud the best time to memorize Quran? the time
after faj the best time to do work and to finish task the time after fajar and I'm sure many of you already witnessed that when you when you used to work after fajger tell us and share with us

people but if you slept early again you get you you get seek the power of Allah and the help of Allah by by sleeping early so after sleep that's why
he disencouraged engaging in speech after he used to dislike speaking after why because that will lead to and will will
pull us until until mid midnight and then we'll find it difficult to wake up for for and for for to start our day
with activeness and find ourel lazy and some people will miss completely some will miss the salah completely shaitan urinated in his in his ears that's the people who are forgetting fud
and not not waking up for fud no I need to change my life this change will will start when you sleep early and you wake up early so the first point to change is
to wake up early wake up maybe half an an hour before make some of some
and in your day starts after that. So

Oh you who believe remember remember Allah abundantly and make this before sunrise before sunset that's what Allah says said to his son and the hadith is authentic the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam said prophet peace be upon him said to his son he said oh my son make sure you make a lot of in the morning why because it is in the salah

Another form of Subhan Allah. Subhan
Allah. Subhan Allah. Subhan Allah.
Subhan Allah. Or all the four words of together. Subhan Allah. Alhamdulillah.
together. Subhan Allah. Alhamdulillah.
All these words can be recited together.
Understand? So that in the beginning of the day very important and that also will will give you a good mood will will strengthen you on the path of Allah
subhana tala that's why Allahh prescribed to Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam you find yourself not in the mood in stress etc. He said to Israel wasam Allah said we
know Muhammad that your chest feels tight because of what they say against you. He was to feel sad. Make among
you. He was to feel sad. Make among
those who make so especially in the beginning of the day will put you in the mood. Sometimes some people wake up not
mood. Sometimes some people wake up not in the mood. Fix your mood engage.
Subhan Allah. Subhan Allah. The prophet
said if I say subhan allah alhamdulillah it is better for me than everything that can see the sun. See how powerful is the next one.
Recite the Quran every day especially in the beginning of the day. Why especially
the Quran says he said a house will be vast for the people living therein and there will be multiple blessings from Allah when a
Quran has been recited in that house especially in the beginning of the day you're starting your day with the baraka with the blessings the Quran is mubarak the Quran is blessed Allah says
This we reveal it to you and it's blessed. Allah says it's blessed. That's
blessed. Allah says it's blessed. That's
why some of the says I started reciting Quran in the morning. It's a realistic story. I started reciting Quran in the
story. I started reciting Quran in the morning with very little few verses. And
then he said I noticed baraka in my day and the more I increase the verses the more I find baraka in my day. The more
you increase the word the more you find baraka in your day. Get accustomed to recite Quran every day before you get out before you go out of your house.
some Quran even if it's two verses even it's five verses even it's 10 verses in the beginning of the day make sure to recite Quran you will see so many blessings from Allahh just for reciting
the calam of allahel now coming to number five in the beginning of the day sending a lot of peace and salutations upon the prophet Muhammad peace and blessings of
Allah upon him right in the beginning of the day in the morning before sunrise is as you start your day. Why? Because
said the prophet wasallam he said if you send one time peace and salutations upon Allah Allah will send peace salutations blessings upon you 10 times. So if you
just sit and say Allah Muhammad Allah Muhammad Allah Muhammad three times now all right you got 30 times blessings peace of Allahawel and mercy upon you in
the beginning of the day you need that you need the mercy you need the blessings you need the the the salah of Allah subhana tala upon you need the rah of Allah to descend upon you just because of sending pleasations upon roo
you get it there is a narration that says that it is encouraged to make 10 times is in the beginning of the day. So
at least in the beginning of the day 10 times can't you do the 10 times I hope you're reciting with mehammed we can do it. You can get accusto. We
just want to get accustomed to that.
Number one, not to sleep after. Try to
wake up early and start your day early.
Number two, praise Allah subhanaa tala and recall some of the blessings of Allah upon you. Number three,
engage in number four. Number five,
still five left. We want to n four left.
Sorry, we said nine. So count with us.
So is very important. And in the hadith he said to the that if you make abundant what will happen Allah will suffice you from anything
that will worry you risk can worry you Allah will give you risk don't worry right any trouble any difficulties any tough time allahel will save you because of Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam and
the of Allah will be showering you throughout the entire day now coming to coming to number six number sixar
beginning of the Always always in the beginning of the day. Why?
Anyone who's accustomed making Allahel will make a way out of every difficulty.
Allah will sustain such a person from where you don't even count. Allahel will
suffice you and make a way for you out of every difficulty. In the beginning of the day, even once you say it once, even powerful

the breakfast you can do that understand now all those points that I mentioned now all of them are verbal ones beside the first one which is making sure not to sleep not to sleep after the rest the
rest are verbal verbal things praising Allah Quran reciting Quran glorifying Allah all all verbal verbal.
Now coming to some actions. Now coming
to some actions also part of the routine that will change your life massively and will draw lots of blessings of Allah upon you. If you are accustom on that
upon you. If you are accustom on that wall I'm taking Allah if you are accustom on that you will see a massive change in your life. Point number six,

We spoke about it before and the virtu we spoke about it from Allahh protection through the entire day accepted dua that's what dua could do
for you. If you can't do four raqa at
for you. If you can't do four raqa at least do two raqa dua is equivalent to 360 charities you have giving in the beginning of the day don't miss salah will take you five minutes 10 minutes
maximum but this salah is so important to keep it part of your routine in the beginning of the day can I do it she just after sunrise yes you can do it can I do it later on after two hours of
sunrise yes you can do it as long as before you can do it that's called keep it as part of your routine and you will see again a massive change
inshallah type the next the next point also practical what is this point means that you rely upon Allah right from the beginning of the day and the
big sign of is to make dua to Allah keep the word the words of dua on your tongue what do you want to achieve today I'm going to
finish some governmental paper some paper from the from the government. Ya
Allah, help me in that. Talk to Allah.
Ya Allah, I'm going to I have an exam today at school. Ya Allah, help me. Talk
to Allah. Allah. Ya Allah, I want success in my business. Ya Allah, I'm going to engage that girl. Ya Allah,
give me success today. In the beginning of the day, practice. And the sign of is to talk to Allah in your own words, in your own language. No problem. Talk to
Allahel and depend upon Allah and ask Allah for small things, for big things, for everything. Talk to Allahel in the
for everything. Talk to Allahel in the beginning of the day used to make this dua. Ya Allah, I ask you for the best of this day. All the
goodness, all the guidance, all the light, all the blessings. I seek
protection in you from all evil, from all harm that might happen to me in this day or after this day. What is that? to
show you that you need to to practice.
You need to practice part of that is that when you're coming out of your house to say in the beginning of the day will draw lots of blessings and risk to you and
protection.
Allah says we spoke about before the power of anyone who relies upon Allah find Allah sufficient for you. Allah
will protect you. When you turn to Allah for small things, for big things, you will see how Allah will protect you.
Practice in the beginning of the day.
Understand part of that's part of ya Allah through you we receive the morning through you we receive the evening and to you is our return. What
is it? Allah you're going somewhere and you know everything is in the hands of my I don't fear anyone except my I have hope in Allah subhana wa tala that's
when you practice you draw the risk to you asoolah sallallahu alaihi wasallam mentioned in the hadith meaning if you truly rely upon allahel Allahh will sustain you like how he
sustains the birds when it goes in the morning with empty berries and returns back full. So the this point is the
back full. So the this point is the point of it is point number eight. Now
coming to the last point right this point is very important point as well which is spending especially in the beginning of day spending.
take care of the people or the whoever is around you. Some people they are accustomed every day in the beginning of the day to give salak or to feed

family time I can't maybe your spend on your family just count and make the intention that whatever you're spending on your family in the beginning of the day. You're

your wife some money for the to buy the grocery. You get that's part of spending
grocery. You get that's part of spending you get the for that. Of course, you get the for taking care of your family. But
just make the just make the intention.
The intention is very important. So in
the beginning of the day, I'm spending spending on who? Spending on my family, spending on my mother, spending on my wife, spending on my children, spend on yourself.
Even if you need certain things for yourself and you buy it for yourself and you're not depriving yourself of being misel and stingy. Some people are stingy to to spend upon themselves or stingy to
spend upon their families or stingy to spend upon their wives. That's all
haram. You're going to Allah will question you for that. Because if
everybody take care of of of your family then we won't have any problems, right?
Say if everybody helps his family and his neighbor, who's going to need help?
If you take care of your family, it starts there. Charity starts at home. So
starts there. Charity starts at home. So
