Hadhrat Abu Ghaalib رضي الله عنه relates that Hadhrat Abdullaah bin Umar رضي الله عنه would stay at his home whenever he was in Makkah and would spend the night in Tahajjud Salaah. One night
before dawn Hadhrat Abdullaah bin Umar رضي الله عنه said to him, “O Abu Ghaalib! Do you not desire to stand and read a little Salaah? How excellent it would be if you were to recite a third of the Quraan.” Abu Ghaalib was astonished and asked, “Dawn is near, how can I recite a third of the Quraan now?”

Hadhrat Ibn Umar replied, “Surah Ikhlaas is equal to a third of the Quraan.”
