Sahih Muslim Hadith 1793 – The Prayer And

English

[1793] 186 – ( … ) It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbâs that he stayed overnight with his maternal aunt Maimünah. The Messenger of Allah j4-5, got up at night and performed a light Wudâ' from a hanging waterskin – and he described his Wudâ', which was brief and that he used little water. Ibn 'Abbâs said: "I got up and did what the Prophet had done, then I came and stood on his left, and he made me go behind him and stand on his right. He prayed, then he lay down and slept until he was breathing deeply. Then Bilâl came and called him to prayers, and he went out and prayed Subh and he did not perform Wudü'." Sufyân (one of the narrators) said: "This was only for the Prophet , because we heard that the Prophet's eyes slept but his heart did not sleep."
