Whenever Hadhrat Umar (Radhiyallahu anhu) would see a person engaging in futile or unnecessary conversation after Isha Salaat, he would order the conversation to stop. He would add: “Go to bed early for perhaps you may be granted the fortune of rising for (Tahajud) Salaat.”
Indulgence in unnecessary and futile talk after Isha Salaat is prohibited in the Hadith. Allah Ta’ala has created the
night for rest and the early hours before Fajr, for Ibaadat. The night is not meant to be wasted in conversation or any other activity which brings about a degeneration in spiritual progress.
One can imagine of what bankruptcy one’s spiritual condition reaches if one indulges in playing games with friends, hanging around with friends, smoking with friends, eating out at take aways and restaurants, playing sports like soccer etc.?
Thus, the no interest in Deeni activities by the youth in our current era is understood, Many youngsters are involved in the above few futile activities we mentioned.
