The Dislike of Sleeping After the Fajr Prayer

وَقَالَ اَلْبَاقِرُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «اَلنَّوْمُ أَوَّلَ اَلنَّهَارِ خُرْقٌ وَ اَلْقَائِلَةُ نِعْمَةٌ وَ اَلنَّوْمُ بَعْدَ اَلْعَصْرِ حُمْقٌ وَ اَلنَّوْمُ بَيْنَ اَلْعِشَاءَيْنِ يَحْرِمُ اَلرِّزْقَ.
Al-Baqir عليه السلام said: "Sleeping at the beginning of the day is wastefulness, the nap at midday is a blessing, sleeping after Asr (afternoon prayer) is foolishness, and sleeping between the two night prayers (Maghrib and Isha) deprives one of sustenance."
