حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذٌ قَالَ: نَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ قَالَ: نَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ:
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَنَامُ فِي سُجُودِهِ، فَمَا نَعْرِفُ نَوْمَهُ إِلَّا بِنَفْخِهِ، ثُمَّ يَقُومُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ
