Final Third Of The Night

Our Lord (glorified and exalted be He) descends each night to the earth's sky when there remains the final third of the night, and He says: "Who is saying a prayer to Me that I may answer it? Who is asking something of Me that I may give it him? Who is asking forgiveness of Me that I may forgive him? " And thus He continues till [the light of] dawn shines.


[Bukhari, Muslim, Malik, at-Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud]
