حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ سَلَامٍ أَخْبَرَنَا هُشَيْمٌ عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ حِينَ نَامُوا عَنْ الصَّلَاةِ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَبَضَ أَرْوَاحَکُمْ حِينَ شَائَ وَرَدَّهَا حِينَ شَائَ فَقَضَوْا حَوَائِجَهُمْ وَتَوَضَّئُوا إِلَی أَنْ طَلَعَتْ الشَّمْسُ وَابْيَضَّتْ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّی
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 7471
Narrated Abu Qatada: When the people slept till so late that they did not offer the (morning) prayer, the Prophet said, "Allah captured your souls (made you sleep) when He willed, and returned them (to your bodies) when He willed." So the people got up and went to answer the call of nature, performed ablution, till the sun had risen and it had become white, then the Prophet got up and offered the prayer.
