Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 18040a
"لَوْلا أَنْ أشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي لأمَرْتُهْم بِالسِّوَاكِ مَع كُلِّ وَضُوءٍ، وَلأخَّرْتُ العِشَاءَ إلَى ثُلُثِ اللَّيل أَوْ إِلى شَطرِ اللَّيلِ، فَإِنَّ رَبَّنَا ينْزِلُ إِلَى السمَاءِ فَيَقُولُ: منْ يَسْألُنِى فَأُعْطِيَه؟ مَنْ يَسْتَغْفِرُنى فَأَغْفِرَ لَهُ، مَنْ يَدْعُونِى؟ فَأَسْتَجِيبَ لَهُ".

"Were it not that I would burden my Ummah, I would have commanded them to use the siwak with every ablution, and I would have delayed the 'Isha' prayer until a third of the night or until half of the night. For indeed our Lord descends to the lowest heaven and says: Who will ask Me, so that I may give to him? Who will seek My forgiveness, so that I may forgive him? Who will call upon Me, so that I may respond to him?"
