Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) reported: The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) said,

{أَفْضَلُ الصِّيَامِ بَعْدَ رَمَضَانَ شَهْرُ اللَّهِ الْمُحَرَّمُ وَأَفْضَلُ الصَّلاَةِ بَعْدَ الْفَرِيضَةِ صَلاَةُ اللَّيْلِ.‏}

❝The most excellent fast after Ramadān is Allāh's month al-Muharram, and the most excellent prayer after the prescribed prayer is the prayer at night.❞ [Muslim].

Commentary:

The month of Muharram is related to Allāh which makes its eminence clear.

It shows that in the optional Saum (fasting) the most meritorious are those which are observed in this month. After the obligatory Salāh (prayer), the most meritorious is the optional Salāh performed at night.

The Mother of The Believers - Umm al-Mu'minīn - 'Ā’ishah (raḍiAllāhu ‘anhā) said:

“O Messenger of Allāh! What if I knew which night Laylatul Qadr was, what should I say in it?...”
