أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَوْسٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ يَقُولُ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَحَبُّ الصِّيَامِ إِلَى اللهِ صِيَامُ دَاوُدَ كَانَ يَصُومُ يَوْمًا وَيُفْطِرُ يَوْمًا وَأَحَبُّ الصَّلَاةِ إِلَى اللهِ صَلَاةُ دَاوُدَ كَانَ يَنَامُ نِصْفَ اللَّيْلِ وَيَقُومُ ثُلُثَهُ وَيَنَامُ سُدُسَهُ»

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The most beloved fasting to Allah is the fasting of Dawood; he used to fast one day and break his fast one day. And the most beloved prayer to Allah is the prayer of Dawood; he used to sleep half the night, stand in prayer for a third of it, and sleep a sixth of it."
