حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُنِيرٍ سَمِعَ يَزِيدَ بْنَ هَارُونَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ قَالَ أَخَّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الصَّلَاةَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ إِلَی شَطْرِ اللَّيْلِ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا فَلَمَّا صَلَّی أَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا بِوَجْهِهِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ صَلَّوْا وَرَقَدُوا وَإِنَّکُمْ لَنْ تَزَالُوا فِي صَلَاةٍ مَا انْتَظَرْتُمْ الصَّلَاةَ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 847
Narrated Anas bin Malik: Once the Prophet delayed the `Isha' prayer until midnight and then came to us. Having prayed he faced us and said, "The people had prayed and slept but you were in the prayer as long as you were waiting for it."
