Caution: Translations of Quran and Ḥadīth may lead to possible misapplications and misinterpretations. This site is intended for students of sacred knowledge that are proficient in comprehending classical Arabic and have a strong foundation in Islamic sciences. Also note that religious injunctions rely on several aspects beyond what one may glean through reading individual aḥādīth.

[Machine] Indeed, your Lord—Exalted is He—has neither night nor day; the light of the heavens and the earth is from the light of His Face. And the measure of each day of your days with Him is twelve hours. So your deeds from yesterday are presented to Him at the beginning of today’s day, and He looks into them for three hours; then He sees in them what He dislikes, and that angers Him. The first to know of His غضب (wrath) are the Bearers of the Throne; they praise Him, and it weighs heavily upon them. Then the Bearers of the Throne, the curtains/canopies of the Throne, the angels brought near, and the rest of the angels glorify Him. Then Jibrīl ﷺ blows the horn, and nothing remains except that it hears its sound, and they glorify the Most Merciful—Exalted is He—for three hours, until the Most Merciful is filled with mercy; that makes six hours.

Then the wombs are brought, and He looks into them for three hours. That is His saying in His Book: “He is the One who shapes you in the wombs however He wills,” and: “He grants to whom He wills females, and He grants to whom He wills males; or He couples them—males and females—and He makes whom He wills barren. Indeed, He is Knowing, Powerful.” That makes nine hours.

Then provision is brought, and He looks into it for three hours—His saying in His Book: “He expands provision for whom He wills and restricts it,” and: “Every day He is upon a matter.” He said: This is from your affair and the affair of your Lord.
