<b>Guidance from the Hadith:</b><br>
1) It is disliked for a person to sleep before the ‘Ishā’ prayer, fearing the elapse of its time.<br>
2) It is disliked to engage in talk after the ‘Ishā’ prayer, unless it serves a good purpose, lest a person should delay his sleep and miss the voluntary night prayer and the Fajr prayer.
