[rizzumd]

:salam2:
In part of Aayatul kursi(2:255) there is a statement that says 'Slumber or sleep never reaches Allah '. What is the difference between Slumber and Sleep?
JazakAllahu khair.

Most dictionaries quote slumber as a period of light rest...
Sleep I guess would be considered as a lengthy amount of time like the period of sleep after Isha til fajr.
