The Sages, of blessed memory, teach us:

In his Sefer Ha-Madda (Book of Knowledge, Talmud Torah 3:13), the Rambam says:

Even though it is a mitzvah to study during the day and at night, it is only at night that a person acquires most of his wisdom... Whoever occupies himself with Torah study at night will have a strand of [Divine] favor extended over him during the day... [In contrast], any house in which the words of Torah cannot be heard at night will be consumed by fire...

Fire consumes:[4] Any home from which words of Torah are not heard from at night, a flame consumes it.

Summer versus winter nights:[5] Even during the [short] nights of Tekufas Tamuz [the summer] one is to learn for some part of the night [and sleep the rest[6]].[7] Starting from the 15th of Av [when the nights become longer], one is to increase little by little the amount of Torah he learns [at night]. However, one who does not add in Torah, will have his days shortened.[8]

Acquiring wisdom:[9] Although it is a Mitzvah to learn Torah both by day and night, most of one’s wisdom is attained specifically through learning Torah at night. [This is due to several factors: 1) At night one is able to learn Torah in tranquility without disturbances. 2) At night, there is a special Segula that the quality of one’s attachment to Hashem through learning Torah is greater than the quality of attachment experienced during the day’s learning.[10]]

Meriting Keser Torah:[11] One who desires to merit the level of Keser Torah, must be careful [to learn Torah] on all of his nights, and is not to lose even one of them in sleeping, eating, drinking and talking and the like, and is rather to study Torah. [Meriting Keser Torah refers to meriting Dveikus with Hashem through one’s learning.]

Meriting the song of Torah:[12] The Sages[13] taught that the [spiritual effect of the] song of Torah is applicable only at night.[14]

Meriting Chut Shel Chesed:[15] Whoever learns Torah at night a “string of kindness” is drawn upon him that day.[16]

Called Eved Hashem:[17] One who learns Torah at night is called a servant of G-d.[18]

Time of appeasement above and merits the Shechina:[19] Anyone who learns Torah at night merits the Shechinah to reside opposite him.[20]
