Today inshallah our brief Khatera will be a quick explanation of Surat-e-Layl that I recited in the

0:20.0

second rakah. Surat-e-Layl is as you are often recited Surah and it is one that inshallah

0:26.4

has a lot of benefit as with all of the smaller suras. It is also the ending of the middle

0:32.0
