حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبَانَ، ثَنَا عَنْبَسَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ ؓ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ:
إِذَا نَامَ أَحَدُكُمْ، وَفِي نَفْسِهِ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَلْيَصْنَعْ قَبْضَةً مِنْ تُرَابٍ عِنْدَهُ، فَإِذَا انْتَبَهَ فَلْيَقْبِضْ بِيَمِينِهِ قَبْضَةً، ثُمَّ لِيَحْصِبْ عَنْ شِمَالِهِ
