Quran 73:1~8

O Muzzammil (folded in garments one of the nick names of the Prophet Muhammad) Stand all night ˹in prayer˺ except a little— ˹pray˺ half the night, or a little less, or a little more— and recite the Quran ˹properly˺ in a measured way. ˹For˺ We will soon send upon you a weighty revelation. Continued…
This Surah takes its name from the first Ayat, يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُزَّمِّلُ ” O you who wraps himself [in clothing],” [73:1].
Indeed, worship in the night is more impactful and suitable for recitation. For during the day you are over-occupied ˹with worldly duties˺. ˹Always˺ remember the Name of your Lord, and devote yourself to Him wholeheartedly. Quran 73:1~8 Surah al-Muzammil (The Enshrouded One)
There are 20 Ayat in this Surah.
یَـٰۤأَیُّهَا ٱلۡمُزَّمِّلُ قُمِ ٱلَّیۡلَ إِلَّا قَلِیلࣰا نِّصۡفَهُۥۤ أَوِ ٱنقُصۡ مِنۡهُ قَلِیلًا أَوۡ زِدۡ عَلَیۡهِ وَرَتِّلِ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ تَرۡتِیلًا إِنَّا سَنُلۡقِی عَلَیۡكَ قَوۡلࣰا ثَقِیلًا إِنَّ نَاشِئَةَ ٱلَّیۡلِ هِیَ أَشَدُّ وَطۡءࣰا وَأَقۡوَمُ قِیلًا إِنَّ لَكَ فِی ٱلنَّهَارِ سَبۡحࣰا طَوِیلࣰا وَٱذۡكُرِ ٱسۡمَ رَبِّكَ وَتَبَتَّلۡ إِلَیۡهِ تَبۡتِیلࣰا
The Surah emphasizes prayers and the reading of the Qur’an in prayers. It tells the Prophet and all those who stand to preach the message of Allah to take their strength from the word of Allah. Read the Qur’an and spend your wealth in the path of Allah.
اے (محمدﷺ) جو کپڑے میں لپٹ رہے ہو رات کو قیام کیا کرو مگر تھوڑی سی رات (قیام) آدھی رات (کیا کرو) یا اس سے کچھ کم یا کچھ زیادہ اور قرآن کو ٹھہر ٹھہر کر پڑھا کرو ہم عنقریب تم پر ایک بھاری فرمان نازل کریں گے کچھ شک نہیں کہ رات کا اٹھنا (نفس بہیمی) کو سخت پامال کرتا ہے اور اس وقت ذکر بھی خوب درست ہوتا ہے دن کے وقت تو تمہیں اور بہت سے شغل ہوتے ہیں تو اپنے پروردگار کے نام کا ذکر کرو اور ہر طرف سے بےتعلق ہو کر اسی کی طرف متوجہ ہوجاؤ
Striving in Ibadah
In the first seven verses the Prophet has been commanded to the effect: “Prepare yourself to shoulder the responsibilities of the great Mission that has been entrusted to you; its practical form is that you should rise during the hours of night and stand up in Prayer for half the night, or for a little more or less of it.”
In v. 8-14, he has been exhorted to the effect: “Devote yourself exclusively to that God Who is the Owner of the whole universe, entrust all your affairs to Him with full satisfaction of the heart. Bear with patience whatever your opponents may utter against you. Do not be intimate with them. Leave their affair to God: He Himself will deal with them.”
Then, in v. 15-19, those of the people of Makkah, who were opposing the Prophet have been warned, so as to say: “We have sent a Messenger to you just as We sent a Messenger to the Pharaoh. Just consider what fate the Pharaoh met when he did not accept the invitation of the Messenger of God. Supposing that you are not punished by a torment in this world, how will you save yourselves from the punishment for disbelief on the Day of Resurrection.”
