[0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/xaVL5JrSkR96/en/prayer-sleep-and-avoiding-late-nights-after-isha?t=59) Pray it at six or seven, before sunrise.

[1:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/xaVL5JrSkR96/en/prayer-sleep-and-avoiding-late-nights-after-isha?t=63) But people’s great misfortune today is that they’ve been tempted by the world and its ornaments, especially in the present age, especially by this great calamity that has entered Muslim homes, namely, television.

[1:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/xaVL5JrSkR96/en/prayer-sleep-and-avoiding-late-nights-after-isha?t=87) Having a television today is among the gravest prohibitions, if only you knew.
