==The Meaning of Ghufayla==
The word, “ghufayla” ({{InlineArabic|غُفَیلَة}}), is the diminutive (musaghghar) noun form derived from “ghafla” ({{InlineArabic|غَفلَة}}) meaning a small neglect. According to a hadith from [[the Prophet Muhammad (s)]], the time between maghrib and isha' prayers is the time of neglecting God, and this is why the Ghufayla prayer, which is said in this time, is called “ghufayla”. [[Imam al-Sadiq (a)]] taught the best manner of saying this recommended prayer to [[Hisham b. Salim]], which is cited in ''[[Mafatih al-jinan]]''.
