I work in a restaurant.Usually I work 12PM-11PM 2 times a week.the other days I work eg.:2-11 at night.By the time I get home it is about 12:30 AM.
I pray Isha (if I could not at work).And also,I live in Ireland so Fajr is at 4:00 ish.
I get up at 9:40 in the morning usually ,then I go to work.
Would you have any Ideas how could I sleep less?
I have tried before that I only slept 4 hours a night ,to stay up after Fajr.After 5 days I was extremely exhausted.
Anybody,any ideas?
Thank You

However, I just realized that we don’t study so that we can earn money; We study so that we can gain ilm and InshAllah play our tiny part in serving the Muslim Ummah. After reading this article, I just realized that in Surah Al Muzammil, Allah says those who want to serve Allah’s deen should wake up at night and do Qiyam. Now I understand that waking up at night and sacrificing my sleep has to be my first priority, even if it compromises my studies by a little bit.

I love the title. Really puts things in perspective. I recently moved my waking time from 8-9am (used to go back to sleep after fajr) to not going to sleep after fajr, by waking up 15 minutes earlier every 2-3 days. It took almost a month, with some “crazily groggy days” in between while my body adjusted, but it worked out in the end. I used to play games on my mobile phone for 10minutes after waking up; the bright screen chased the sleep from my eyes and activated my brain. On extra drowsy days I did it for 30-40minutes, even. (Using the computer after fajr works even better). I find it easier not to sleep after fajr on weekdays. On weekends there’s no “have to get somewhere” incentive, so I usually schedule something to do.

That said, when I got the flu I slept till 8am because my body needed it. So, you’re right about giving your body its rights.
