Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the noble verse, He says:
They arise from [their] bedsتَتَجَافَىٰ جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ
[As-Sajdah 32:16]
.

Answer:
This is regarding standing in night prayer. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) describes His believing servants as those who stand up at night and leave sleep, even though they are in need of it, but they leave it in hope of what is with Allah and the reward of standing in night prayer
They arise from [their] beds; they supplicate their Lord in fear and aspiration, and from what We have provided them, they spend.تَتَجَافَىٰ جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُمْ خَوْفًا وَطَمَعًا وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ
[As-Sajdah 32:16]
. That is, regarding standing in night prayer and its virtue. Yes.
