1. If after Isha one does not have anything important to do like any Religious or any other commitments then one should go early to bed and avoid useless talk and gatherings. Going to bed early assists one in waking up early for worship as well as waking up fresher for the new day in order to work or to carry out daily tasks.
2. Recite: Bismillah بِسْمِ الِّ (In the name of Allah) before closing the doors of the house, before covering utensils with food in them, switch off or turn off fires, light etc (Bukhari) If one cannot find anything with which to cover the utensil then one should place a stick across the top of the utensil. (Muslim-Vol.2, pg.170)
3. To discuss with family members matters pertaining to Islam like stories of the Sahaba’s or reminders that will help increase Imaan (faith). Or to simply talk about matters that please them without getting into useless talk. (Tirmidhi)
4. Children who are aged nine or ten years of age should be separated from females in one room and males in another. (Mishkaat)
5. Apply Surma (Kohl) in each eye three times (Mishkaat)
6. To lay or spread the bed oneself (Muslim)
7. Before climbing into bed, dust the bed thrice with the corner of your clothes. (Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawood, Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah)
8. Recite ‘Bismillah’ when removing clothing as it is a cover and protection from Jinn and Shaythaan.
9. To make Miswaak before retiring.....
