Best morning routine for a student

6 Morning Routines for Smart Students
Wake Up Early and Energized. The most effective morning routines begin the night before with good sleep.
Practice Light Exercise or Stretching. 
Eat a Healthy Breakfast. 
Review Goals and Plan the Day. 
Quick Study or Reading Session. 
Positive Affirmations and Mindfulness

A question may come in mind

Did Prophet Muhammad have a routine?
Using the word “routine” might not be the best description of a typical day in Prophet Muhammad's life. As you'll read below, he used to adapt each day to the needs of his family and community and did not follow a strict 9-5 routine


Wake Early
 Aim for Tahajjud (late night) or at least for Fajr prayer (dawn).
Waking Duas
 Say the specific supplication for waking up, like "Alhamdulillah hilathi ahyaa'na ba'da ma amaata'na wa ilaihi annushoor" (All praise is for Allah who gave us life after causing us to die, and to Him is the resurrection).
Use Siwak
           Clean your teeth with a siwak (or toothbrush).
Pray Sunnah of Fajr
             Perform the two rak'ahs (units) of Sunnah prayer at home before Fajr.
Fajr Prayer
 Pray Fajr, ideally in congregation at the mosque for men, and stay for post-prayer dhikr.
Morning Dhikr & Quran
           Recite morning supplications (Adhkar) and spend time with Quran recitation or reflection.

Productive Activities 

Study/Reflection: Read Islamic books, hadith, or the meaning (tafsir) of the Quran.
Plan Your Day: Set intentions and plan tasks, aligning them with your faith.
Exercise/Errands: Incorporate healthy activities like jogging or running errands, as the Prophet (PBUH) had a full daily life.

 Principles
Prioritize Prayer Structure your day around prayer times, not vice versa.
Intention (Niyyah) Start with the right intention for every action.
Gratitude (Shukr) Be thankful for the blessing of another day.
Consistency Make small, consistent efforts with the Quran and dhikr.
