The Recitation of Surat Al-Layl in the `Isha' Prayer The statement of the Prophet to Mu`adh has already preceded, where he said, «فَهَلَّا صَلَّيْتَ ب سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الاّعْلَى وَالشَّمْسِ وَضُحَـهَا وَالَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَى» ( Why did you not pray with (the recitation of ) ( Glorify the Name of your Lord the Most High ) ( 87 ), and ( By the sun and Duhaha ) ( 91 ), and ( By the night as it envelops ) ( 92 )) بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـنِ الرَّحِيمِ In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Swearing by the Diversity of Mankind in Their Efforts and informing of the Different Results of that Allah swears by saying: الْلَّيْلَإِذَا يَغْشَى ( By the night as it envelops. ) meaning, when it covers the creation with its darkness. وَالنَّهَارِ إِذَا تَجَلَّى ( By the day as it appears. ) meaning, with its light and its radiance. وَمَا خَلَقَ الذَّكَرَ وَالاٍّنثَى ( By Him Who created male and female. ) This is similar to Allah's saying, وَخَلَقْنَـكُمْ أَزْوَجاً ( And We have created you in pairs. ) ( 78:8 ) It is also similar to saying, وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ ( And of everything We have created pairs. ) ( 51:49 ) And just as these things that are being sworn by are opposites, likewise that which this swearing is about are opposing things.
This is why Allah says, إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّى ( Certainly, your efforts and deeds are diverse.
) meaning, the actions of the servants that they have performed are also opposites and diverse.
Therefore, there are those who do good and there are those who do evil.
Allah then says, فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَى وَاتَّقَى ( As for him who gives and has Taqwa. ) meaning, he gives what he has been commanded to give and he fears Allah in his affairs. وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَى ( And believes in Al-Husna. ) meaning, in the compensation for that.
This was said by Qatadah.
Khusayf said, "In the reward." Then Allah says, فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَى ( We will make smooth for him the path of ease. ) Ibn `Abbas said, "Meaning for goodness." Thus, Allah says, وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ ( But he who is greedy ) meaning, with that which he has. وَاسْتَغْنَى ( and thinks himself self-sufficient, ) `Ikrimah reported that Ibn `Abbas said, "This means he is stingy with his wealth and considers himself to be in no need of his Lord, the Mighty and Majestic." This was recorded by Ibn Abi Hatim. وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَى ( And denies Al-Husna. ) meaning, the recompense in the abode of the Hereafter. فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَى ( We will make smooth for him the path to evil. ) meaning, the path of evil.
This is as Allah says, وَنُقَلِّبُ أَفْئِدَتَهُمْ وَأَبْصَـرَهُمْ كَمَا لَمْ يُؤْمِنُواْ بِهِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَنَذَرُهُمْ فِى طُغْيَانِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ ( And We shall turn their hearts and their eyes away, as they refused to believe therein for the first time, and We shall leave them in their trespass to wander blindly. ) ( 6:110 ) And there are many Ayat with this meaning, proving that Allah rewards those who intend good with success, while whoever intends evil is abandoned, and all of this is in accordance with a preordained decree.
There are also many Hadiths that prove this. The Narration of Abu Bakr As-Siddiq Imam Ahmad recorded from Abu Bakr that he said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, "O Messenger of Allah! Do we act according to what has already been decided, or is the matter just beginning ( i.e., still undecided )" He replied,
«بَلْ عَلَى أَمْرٍ قَدْ فُرِغَ مِنْه»
( Indeed it is according to what has already been decided. ) Then Abu Bakr said, "Then what ( good ) are deeds, O Messenger of Allah" He replied,
«كُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ لِمَا خُلِقَ لَه»
( Everyone will find it easy to do such deeds that will lead him to what he was created for. ) The Narration of `Ali Al-Bukhari recorded from `Ali bin Abi Talib that they ( the Companions ) were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at the cemetery of Baqi` Al-Gharqad for a funeral, when the Prophet said,
«مَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا وَقَدْ كُتِبَ مَقْعَدُهُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَمَقْعَدُهُ مِنَ النَّار»
( There is none among you except that his place has already been written, a seat in Paradise and a seat in the Hellfire. ) They said, "O Messenger of Allah! Should we depend on this" He replied,
«اعْمَلُوا ، فَكُلٌّ مُيَسَّرٌ لِمَا خُلِقَ لَه»
( Perform deeds for everyone will have the deeds of what he was created for (Paradise or Hell ) made easy for him.) Then he recited the Ayah فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَى وَاتَّقَى - وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَى - فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَى ( As for him who gives and has Taqwa, and believes in Al-Husna.
We will make smooth for him the path of ease. )" until the Ayah: لِلْعُسْرَى ( the path to evil ) He ( Imam Al-Bukhari ) also recorded another similar narration from `Ali bin Abi Talib in which he said, "We were at a funeral in the cemetery of Baqi` Al-Gharqad when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and sat down.
So we came and sat around him and he had a stick with him.
Then he bowed his head and he began to scratch the ground with his stick.
He then said,
«مَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ أَوْ مَا مِنْ نَفْسٍ مَنْفُوسَةٍ إِلَّا كُتِبَ مَكَانُهَا مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ وَالنَّارِ،وَإِلَّا قَدْ كُتِبَتْ شَقِيَّةً أَوْ سَعِيدَة»
( There is not anyone among you -- or is not a single soul (that has been created ) -- except that his place has been written in Paradise or in the Fire, and it has been written that he will be miserable or happy.) A man said, "O Messenger of Allah! Should we just depend on what has been written for us and give up performing deeds For whoever of us is of the people of happiness then he will be of the people of happiness, and whoever among us is of the people of misery then he will be of the people of misery." The Prophet replied, «أَمَّا أَهْلُ السَّعَادَةِ فَيُيَسَّرُونَ لِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ السَّعَادَةِ، وَأَمَّا أَهْلُ الشَّقَاءِ فَيُيَسَّرُونَ إِلَى عَمَلِ أَهْلِ الشَّقَاءِ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ: ( Those people who are the people of happiness, they will have the deeds of the people of happiness made easy for them.
And those people who are the people of misery, they will have the deeds of the people of misery made easy for them. ) Then he recited the Ayah: فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَى وَاتَّقَى - وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَى - فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَى - وَأَمَّا مَن بَخِلَ وَاسْتَغْنَى وَكَذَّبَ بِالْحُسْنَى- فَسَنُيَسّرُهُ لِلْعُسْرَى-» ( As for him who gives and has Taqwa, and believes in Al-Husna.
We will make smooth for him the path of ease (goodness ).
But he who is greedy and thinks himself self-sufficient, and belies Al-Husna.
We will make smooth for him the path to evil.)) The other compilers of the Group have also recorded this Hadith. The Narration of `Abdullah bin `Umar Imam Ahmad recorded from Ibn `Umar that `Umar said, "O Messenger of Allah! Do you think that the deeds that we do are a matter that is already predetermined or are they something just beginning or new" The Prophet replied,
«فِيمَا قَدْ فُرِغَ مِنْهُ، فَاعْمَلْ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، فَإِنَّ كُلًّا مُيَسَّرٌ، أَمَّا مَنْ كَانَ مِنْ أَهْلِ السَّعَادَةِ فَإِنَّهُ يَعْمَلُ لِلسَّعَادَةِ، وَأَمَّا مَنْ كَانَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الشَّقَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ يَعْمَلُ لِلشَّقَاء»
( It is something that has already been predetermined.
Therefore, work deeds, O son of Al-Khattab! For verily, each person will have things made easy for him.
So whoever is from the people of happiness, then he will work deeds for happiness, and whoever is from the people of misery, then he will work deeds for misery. )" This Hadith has been recorded by At-Tirmidhi in the Book of Al-Qadar and he said "Hasan Sahih." Another Hadith Narrated by Jabir Ibn Jarir recorded from Jabir bin `Abdullah that he said, "O Messenger of Allah! Are we performing deeds for something that has already been predetermined or is the matter based upon what we are just doing ( now )" The Prophet replied,
«لِأَمْرٍ قَدْ فُرِغَ مِنْه»
( It is a matter that has been predetermined. ) Then Suraqah said, "Then what is the purpose of deeds" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said,
«كُلُّ عَامِلٍ مُيَسَّرٌ لِعَمَلِه»
( Everyone who does deeds will have his deeds made easy for him. ) Muslim also recorded this Hadith.
Ibn Jarir recorded from `Amir bin `Abdullah bin Az-Zubayr that he said, "Abu Bakr used to free servants upon their acceptance of Islam in Makkah.
He used to free the elderly and the women when they accepted Islam.
So his father said to him, `O my son! I see that you are freeing people who are weak.
But if you freed strong men they could stand with you, defend you and protect you.' Abu Bakr replied, `O my father! I only want -- and I think he said -- what is with Allah.' Some people of my family have told me this Ayah was revealed about him: فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَى وَاتَّقَى - وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَى - فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَى ( As for him who gives and has Taqwa, and believes in Al-Husna.
We will make smooth for him the path of ease. )" Then Allah says, وَمَا يُغْنِى عَنْهُ مَالُهُ إِذَا تَرَدَّى ( And what will his wealth avail him when he goes down ) Mujahid said, "This means when he dies." Abu Salih and Malik said -- narrating from Zayd bin Aslam, "When he goes down into the Fire."

(92:7) We shall facilitate for him the Way to Bliss. *3

We will ease him toward ease. meaning

*3) This is the result of the first kind of endeavouring and struggling.
The easy way implies the way which is in accordance with human nature, which is in accordance with the will of the Creator, Who has created man and the whole _ universe.
It is a way in which man has not to fight his conscience, in which he dces not have to force his faculties of mind and energies of body into doing works for which they are not given but to do things for which they have actually been given him.
It is a way in which man has not to experience war, resistance and conflict on every side, which he has to experience in a life full of sin, but a human society in which at every step he experiences peace and concord, appreciation and honour.
Obviously, the person who spends his wealth for public welfare, treats every other person kindly and well, whose life is free from crime, sin and immorality, who is righteous and fair in his dealings, who neither cheats others nor proves false in his promises, from whom no one apprehends dishonesty, injustice and excess, and with whose character no one finds any fault, will in any case be honoured and respected in any society, however, corrupt and depraved it may be.
Hearts will be attracted towards him in esteem and regard; his own heart and consience will be satisfied, and he will attain to dignity in society which no immoral person can ever attain.
This same thing has been expressed in Surah AnNahl, thus: " Whoever dces righteous deeds whether male or female, provided that he is a believer, We will surely grant him to live a pure life in this world ( v.
97 ) ", and in Surah Maryam, thus " The Merciful ,will fill with love the hearts of those who believe and do righteous deeds ( v.
86 ).
This then is the way in which there is nothing but joy and tranquillity for man, for the world till the Hereafter.
Its resultsare not transient and temporary but eternal and everlasting.

Concerning this Allah says "We shall facilitate for him the easy way." It means to say "When after affirming goodness he decides that this way alone suits him, and the evil way does not suit him, and when by making sacrifices and adopting the life of -tagva practically he proves that he is true in his affirmation, Allah will make easy for him to walk this way.
Then, to commit evil will become difficult for him, and to do good easy.
When unlawful wealth comes before him, he will not regard it as a good bargain, but consider it a hot piece of burning coal, which he cannot hold in his hand.
When opportunities for sin appear before him, he will not rush to seize them as opportunities for pleasure and enjoyment, but will look upon them as gates to Hell and will flee them.
The Prayer will not be hard for him, and hem will have no internal peace until he has performed it at its appointed time.
He will not feel hurt when paying the zakat, but will regard his wealth as impure until he has paid out the Zakat from it.
In short, at every step, Allah will favour him with His grace and help him to follow this way; conditions will be made favourable for hisn and he will be helped out of every difficulty.
Now, the question arises that in Surah Al-Baled ahove this very way has been called an uphill road, and hire it has been described as an easy way How can the two things be reconciled? The answer is that before a man has adopted this way, it appears to be a steep, uphill road, for ascending which he has to fight his desires, his materialistic members of the family, his relatives, his friends and those with whom he has social and other dealings, and above all Satan, for each one of them obstructs his way, and makes it seem dreadful.
But after tnan has affirmed goodness and resolved to follow this way, and giving away his wealth in the cause of God and adopting the way of taqva, has practically strengthened his resolve, ascending the steep road becomes easy and slipping into the abyss of moral depravities becomes difficult for him.

This is as Allah says, وَنُقَلِّبُ أَفْئِدَتَهُمْ وَأَبْصَـرَهُمْ كَمَا لَمْ يُؤْمِنُواْ بِهِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَنَذَرُهُمْ فِى طُغْيَانِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَ ( And We shall turn their hearts and their eyes away, as they refused to believe therein for the first time, and We shall leave them in their trespass to wander blindly. ) ( 6:110 ) And there are many Ayat with this meaning, proving that Allah rewards those who intend good with success, while whoever intends evil is abandoned, and all of this is in accordance with a preordained decree.

( Surely We will ease his way unto the state of ease ) We shall make easy for him acts of obedience and give him success, time and again, to perform acts of obedience; and it is also said this means: We shall give him success, time and again, to give alms for the sake of Allah; this refers to Abu Bakr al-Siddiq.

We will make smooth for him the path of ease (goodness).
