If you toss and turn during the night without being able to fall asleep, do the following:
1. Remember Allah with Prophetic supplications or supplications taken from the Qur’an:
“Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest.”
(Quran 13:28)
2. Avoid sleeping during the day, except when you have no other choice:
“And have made the day for livelihood.”
(Qur’an 78:11)
3. Read or write until sleep comes:
“And say:’My Lord! Increase me in knowledge.'”
(Qur’an 20:114)
4. Work hard during the day:
“And [it is He Who] makes the day Nushur [i.e. getting up and going about here and there for daily work, etc., after one s sleep at night or like resurrection after ones death].”
(Qur’an 25:47)
5. Consume stimulants such as coffee and tea in moderation.
