The people of the night enjoy their nights much more than the people who spend their nights frequenting night clubs.  If there were no night I would not wish to remain in this world.  If Allah, Exalted is He, only rewarded the people of the night with the sweetness which they received in their prostrations, that would be enough for them.

—Abu Sulayman ad-Darani
