That’s the time when you leave everything behind and you just connect with allah Subhanahu watala.

You have a time to spend with Allah because thought life takes us over, during the day we’re busy chasing our work and our business and our relationships and our goals and our desires and our pleasures, but we tend to forget about Allah Subhana Wa Ta’ala so we lose our focus.

We stop or we failed to see the reality of this life and we don’t realize that we were brought into this life to be able to connect to allah and make a way back to back to him.

Jibreel (alayhi Salam) says , but the distractions take us away from that so we need to readjust our focus so when you pray and when you do that at night you’re readjusting your lens so you can focus on allah subhana wa ta’ala and you can put everything in its right place.

Then Jibreel (alayhi Salam) points something to something else that’s extremely important . Jibreel (alayhi Salam) says the dignity of a believer is in the fact that he is not in need of other people. he’s not in need of other creation and that refers to the state of the heart. because you are only poor towards Allah.

You only need Allah in your heart, so don’t let your heart be attached to anyone in terms of your needs.

let it be attached to Allah but practically and physically speaking you chase whatever you are supposed to get. you work towards it you build relationships and you have normal interactions but you do not attach your heart to people you attach your heart to the Lord of people and that’s the way to go through this life. Jibreel (alayhi Salam) is one of the most powerful and major angels among all.
