Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner says: If I wake up in the middle of the night and I want to benefit from the Qur'an, should I read the tafsir and reflect on the verses, or should I pray the tahajjud prayer? Which is better for gaining benefit, considering that I do not memorize many of the verses?
Answer:
If you get up at night to perform tahajjud and you read in the tahajjud prayer, and if you pray what is easy for you and read something from the Qur'an in the remaining time, that is good. As for the tafsir, it has another time. Dedicate this time to the Qur'an, and the tafsir has another time. Yes.
