859. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: One night I slept at the house of my aunt Maimūna and the Prophet ﷺ slept (too). He got up [for Ṣalāt (prayer)] in the last hours of the night and performed a light ablution from a hanging leather water-skin. ('Amr, the subnarrator described that the ablution was very light). Then he stood up for Ṣalāt and I got up too and performed the ablution in the same way and joined him on his left side. He pulled me to the right and offered prayers as much as Allāh will. Then he lay down and slept and I heard his breath sounds till the Mu'adh-dhīn came to him to inform him about the (Fajr) prayer. He left with him for the Ṣalāt and offered Ṣalāt without repeating the ablution. (Sufyān the subnarrator said: We said to 'Amr, "Some people say, 'The eyes of the Prophet ﷺ sleep but his heart never sleeps'." 'Amr said, " 'Ubayd bin 'Umayr said, 'The dreams of the Prophets are Divine Revelations. Then he recited, '...O my son, I have seen in a dream that I am slaughtering you (offering you in sacrifice to Allāh...)'") (V.37:102).

859 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي كُرَيْبٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: بِتُّ عِنْدَ خَالَتِي مَيْمُونَةَ لَيْلَةً، فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي بَعْضِ اللَّيْلِ، «قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَتَوَضَّأَ مِنْ شَنٍّ مُعَلَّقٍ وُضُوءًا خَفِيفًا - يُخَفِّفُهُ عَمْرٌو وَيُقَلِّلُهُ جِدًّا -، ثُمَّ قَامَ يُصَلِّي، فَقُمْتُ، فَتَوَضَّأْتُ نَحْوًا مِمَّا تَوَضَّأَ، ثُمَّ جِئْتُ، فَقُمْتُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ، فَحَوَّلَنِي، فَجَعَلَنِي عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ، ثُمَّ اضْطَجَعَ، فَنَامَ حَتَّى نَفَخَ، فَأَتَاهُ المُنَادِي يَأْذَنُهُ بِالصَّلاَةِ، فَقَامَ مَعَهُ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ، فَصَلَّى وَلَمْ يَتَوَضَّأْ» قُلْنَا لِعَمْرٍو: إِنَّ نَاسًا يَقُولُونَ: «إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَنَامُ عَيْنُهُ وَلاَ يَنَامُ قَلْبُهُ» قَالَ عَمْرٌو: سَمِعْتُ عُبَيْدَ بْنَ عُمَيْرٍ يَقُولُ: " إِنَّ رُؤْيَا الأَنْبِيَاءِ وَحْيٌ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ: {إِنِّي أَرَى فِي المَنَامِ أَنِّي أَذْبَحُكَ} [الصافات: 102] "
