</ref> (spending the night in prayer) is one of the most important traditions among [Shia Muslims](/source/Shia_Muslims). According to most commentators, vigil for the purpose of [night prayer](/source/Tahajjud), as it appears from [Surah](/source/Surah) [Al-Muzzammil](/source/Al-Muzzammil) of the [Quran](/source/Quran) was obligatory for about a year at the beginning of Islam, and Muslims performed it alongside the Islamic prophet [Muhammad](/source/Muhammad). According to most [Islamic jurists](/source/Faqih) and commentators, after about a year, according to verse 21 of the same surah, [God](/source/God_in_Islam) reduced this ruling and replaced it with [tahajjud](/source/tahajjud).<ref>
