The ruling on one who recites the supplications for sleep and then gets up to relieve himself
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If he speaks to someone after finishing the supplications for sleep?
Answer:
He got up, meaning to relieve himself?
Q: To relieve himself or... he answered someone.
The Shaykh: If he gets up to relieve himself and then returns, it is finished and the objective has been achieved, and praise be to Allah. If he repeats the whole thing, that is better, but the objective was achieved when he first lay down on his side. If he gets up to relieve himself or speak to someone, there is no harm if he repeats it; otherwise, the objective has been achieved, and praise be to Allah.
