The texts of revelation have converged on the virtue of night prayer ( al-Layl). Among the hadiths mentioned in this regard are the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "The best fasting after is Allah's month of Muharram, and the best prayer after the obligatory prayers is the night prayer," and his saying: "O people, spread peace, feed the hungry, and pray at night while people are asleep, and you will enter Paradise in peace." He also (peace be upon him) forbade abandoning night prayer after becoming accustomed to it.
