أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ الرَّازِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْکَدِرِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ کَانَتْ لَهُ صَلَاةٌ صَلَّاهَا مِنْ اللَّيْلِ فَنَامَ عَنْهَا کَانَ ذَلِکَ صَدَقَةً تَصَدَّقَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْهِ وَکَتَبَ لَهُ أَجْرَ صَلَاتِهِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1790
It was narrated from Saad bin Jubair, from Al-Aswad bin Yazid, that ‘Aishah said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: ‘Whoever has the habit of praying at night, but he sleeps and misses it, that is a charity that Allah has given to him, and the reward of his prayer will be recorded for him.” (Sahih)
