Chapter on the Manner of Prayer, Its Description and What is Obligatory and Recommended
عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنِ اَلْعَلاَءِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ:« لَيْسَ مِنْ عَبْدٍ إِلاَّ يُوقَظُ فِي كُلِّ لَيْلَةٍ مَرَّةً أَوْ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ مِرَاراً فَإِنْ قَامَ كَانَ ذَلِكَ وَإِلاَّ فَحَّجَ اَلشَّيْطَانُ فَبَالَ فِي أُذُنِهِ أَ وَ لاَ يَرَى أَحَدُكُمْ أَنَّهُ إِذَا قَامَ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُ قَامَ وَ هُوَ مُتَخَثِّرٌ ثَقِيلٌ كَسْلاَنُ»
From him from Muhammad ibn Al-Husayn from Safwan ibn Yahya from Al-Ala' from Muhammad ibn Muslim:
Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: "There is no servant except that he is awakened every night once, or twice, or several times. If he gets up, then that is good; otherwise, Shaytan snorts and urinates in his ear. Do you not see that if one of you gets up without responding to this call, he gets up sluggish, heavy, and lazy?"
