    Summary of lecture by Dr.

    Hamza Al-Hamzawi on

    "The Art of sleeping''


    1. Sleeping from 9 to 12 after Isha :

    Sleeping during this time is most beneficial. One can get 80% of deep sleep during this
    time. This time has 'Baraka' in it so 1hr of sleep=3 hrs of sleep. During this time pineal
    gland produces 'melatonin' hormone provided (2conditions):
    1. There is darkness
    2. One must be relaxing ( if not sleeping)
    *(Melatonin hormone helps us to sleep)

    3. Sleeping from 12AM to 2AM:

    During this time there is 20% of deep sleep. Rest of the sleep is dream sleeping , not very
    useful. During this time 1 hr sleep = 1 hr sleep.
    4. From 2AM to 5AM before Fajr:

    This is the best time for memorizing, remembering Allah, Zikr, Istaghfar & mental
    Concentration
    5. Sleeping during day (after fajr):

    Its not beneficial 3 hrs sleep = 1 hr sleep

    (absence of 'Barakah' +Sluggishness + confusion + lack of focus)


    6. Sleeping from fajr to sunrise:

    Pineal gland secrets another hormone 'seretonium'. This one is released from fajr to
    sunrise time provided (2 conditions):
    1.The person should be awake
    2. With light movement like mental exercise ("Those who pray fajr with 'Jamat' & sit
    remembering Allah").
    3. This is the time for zikr azkar and to ponder and plan your day and your priorities.
    4. Exercises and strenous movements should be done only after sunrise.
    5. The release of 'melatonin ' by pineal gland decreases after 40 years and stops after

    50. Then a person has to utilize what he has stored in his body throughout his life .
    So if a person gets Alzheimer's and early dementia. it means that he had been
    sleeping late throughout his life.
