[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When one-third of the night remains, Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, descends to the lowest heaven, then the doors of the heavens are opened, and He extends His hand and says, 'Is there anyone to ask Me, so that I may give him his request? Is there anyone to seek My forgiveness, so that I may forgive him?' And this continues until dawn breaks."  

أحمد:٣٦٧٣حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا كَانَ ثُلُثُ اللَّيْلِ الْبَاقِي يَهْبِطُ اللهُ ﷻ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا ثُمَّ تُفْتَحُ أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ يَبْسُطُ يَدَهُ فَيَقُولُ هَلْ مِنْ سَائِلٍ يُعْطَى سُؤْلَهُ ؟ فَلَايَزَالُ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى يَطْلُعَ الْفَجْرُ
