Volume 9, Book 93, Number 557:
Narrated ‘Ali bin Abi Talib:
That one night Allah’s Apostle visited him and Fatima, the daughter of Allah’s Apostle and said to
them, “Won ‘t you offer (night) prayer?.. ‘Ali added: I said, “O Allah’s Apostle! Our souls are in the
Hand of Allah and when He Wishes to bring us to life, He does.” Then Allah’s Apostle went away
when I said so and he did not give any reply. Then I heard him on leaving while he was striking his
thighs, saying, ‘But man is, more quarrelsome than anything.’ (18.54)
