1631. It was narrated from 'Amr bin Aws that he heard 'Abdullâh bin 'Amr bin Al-'Âs say: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "The most beloved of fasting to Allâh is the fasting of Dâwûd, peace be upon him. He used to fast one day and not the next. And the most beloved of prayer to Allâh is the prayer of Dâwûd. He used to sleep half the night, spend one-third of the night in prayer and sleep for one-sixth of it.” (Ṣaḥīḥ)
1630 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَوْسٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَحَبُّ الصِّيَامِ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ صِيَامُ دَاوُدَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ، كَانَ يَصُومُ يَوْمًا وَيُفْطِرُ يَوْمًا، وَأَحَبُّ الصَّلَاةِ إِلَى اللَّهِ صَلَاةُ دَاوُدَ كَانَ يَنَامُ نِصْفَ اللَّيْلِ، وَيَقُومُ ثُلُثَهُ، وَيَنَامُ سُدُسَهُ»
