And if the person wasted the first part of the day which is blessed, virtuous, and when provisions are sent down, for indeed his day is lost.

And from that which was in the morning (blessings) will be withdrawn from the rest of his day, therefore the muslim should be assured not to waste the first part of the day, by being inactive, tired and apathetic.

The Salaf didn't know of sleep after fajr prayer, to the point ibn Qayyim said; even if they were on a long travel, be it tiring and intense, they didn't sleep after fajr prayer. Rather, they would wait until the sun had risen and then slept.

All of that is from preserving the virtuous time which is after fajr prayer, until the sun has risen. This is a blessed and virtuous time for remembrance of Allah, and the salaf didn't sleep during this time even if they were tired or lazy etc.

Indeed they preserved this time for remembrance of Allah, especially tasbeeh (saying Subhan Allah), and the remembrances that come in the Qur'an & Sunnah. The majority of them will come in this book...

And indeed it came in Sahih Muslim that Abi Waa'il Shaqiq bin Salamah said; We prayed the morning prayer (Fajr) then we went to ibn Mas'ood, to his home to visit him, we requested permission to enter. The female servant sought

for us permission to enter, so we were permitted to enter (ibn Mas'ood permitted them to enter), so after gaining permission we waited a little bit, then entered. So when we entered upon Ibn Mas'ood,he said; why were you delayed and you
were given

permission to enter (earlier). We said; We thought somebody inside
may be sleeping we would wait a little until the people inside could organise or prepare the pathway inside for us, so we waited a little before entering.

So Ibn Mas'ood may Allah be please with him said; do you think that with us is heedlessness (i.e sleeping after fajr prayer). The meaning of that, nobody in the household slept after fajr prayer.

Then they began to remember Allah with (subhan Allah), until the female servant said the sun has risen, then he looked and said it hasn't. So they began dhikr with (subhan Allah). Then he said to the female servant to check if the sun had risen she replied; yes.

He said; All praise is due to Allah. He said a strange word. He said; All praise is due to Allah, who, excused us this day of ours, and didn't allow us to get caught up in our sins.
