حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي كُرَيْبٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَامَ حَتَّى نَفَخَ ثُمَّ صَلَّى ـ وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ اضْطَجَعَ حَتَّى نَفَخَ ـ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَصَلَّى‏.‏ ثُمَّ حَدَّثَنَا بِهِ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً بَعْدَ مَرَّةٍ عَنْ عَمْرٍو عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ بِتُّ عِنْدَ خَالَتِي مَيْمُونَةَ لَيْلَةً، فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مِنَ اللَّيْلِ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي بَعْضِ اللَّيْلِ قَامَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَتَوَضَّأَ مِنْ شَنٍّ مُعَلَّقٍ وُضُوءًا خَفِيفًا ـ يُخَفِّفُهُ عَمْرٌو وَيُقَلِّلُهُ ـ وَقَامَ يُصَلِّي فَتَوَضَّأْتُ نَحْوًا مِمَّا تَوَضَّأَ، ثُمَّ جِئْتُ فَقُمْتُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ ـ وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ سُفْيَانُ عَنْ شِمَالِهِ ـ فَحَوَّلَنِي فَجَعَلَنِي عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ، ثُمَّ اضْطَجَعَ، فَنَامَ حَتَّى نَفَخَ، ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الْمُنَادِي فَآذَنَهُ بِالصَّلاَةِ، فَقَامَ مَعَهُ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ، فَصَلَّى وَلَمْ يَتَوَضَّأْ‏.‏ قُلْنَا لِعَمْرٍو إِنَّ نَاسًا يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم تَنَامُ عَيْنُهُ وَلاَ يَنَامُ قَلْبُهُ‏.‏ قَالَ عَمْرٌو سَمِعْتُ عُبَيْدَ بْنَ عُمَيْرٍ يَقُولُ رُؤْيَا الأَنْبِيَاءِ وَحْىٌ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ ‏{‏إِنِّي أَرَى فِي الْمَنَامِ أَنِّي أَذْبَحُكَ‏}‏‏.‏

The prophet (ﷺ) went to sleep till he started snoring, then he performed prayer. Sometimes, he (ﷺ) said: He went to sleep till he started snoring then stood up and performed prayer. Then Sufyan reports a Hadith many a time from Amr, he reports from Kuraib that Hadrat Ibn-e-Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما said: I passed a night in the house of my maternal aunt Hadrat Maimoonah and the prophet (ﷺ) stood up to perform prayer. When a part of night was left, Allah’s Apostle (ﷺ) got up and performed a light ablution from a hanging water skin. Amr describes the quality of his light ablution (Ablution during which one should wash the limbs once and be economical in using water: Irfan) And he (ﷺ) stood up to perform prayer. I also performed an ablution similar to him and then stood up (on his left side): Sometime Sufyan said: Shimalhi (on the left side): So, he drew me to his right. Then he performed the prayer as Allah willed. Then he lay down and slept and started to snore. Thereafter, the proclaimer came and he called him for prayer. So, he (ﷺ) went along him to perform prayer and performed prayer but did not perform ablution. We said to Amr: People say: The eyes of Allah’s Apostle (ﷺ) sleep but his heart does not sleep. Amr says that he has heard Ubaid bin Umair saying: the dream of the prophet (ﷺ) is a divine revelation. Then he recites this verse: “ Undoubtedly, I saw in a dream that I slaughtered you.”(Assafat: 102)
