وَعَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِي زُهَيْرٍ اَلنَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ آدَمَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ قَالَ:« عَلَيْكُمْ بِصَلاَةِ اَللَّيْلِ فَإِنَّهَا سُنَّةُ نَبِيِّكُمْ وَ دَأْبُ اَلصَّالِحِينَ قَبْلَكُمْ وَ مَطْرَدَةُ اَلدَّاءِ عَنْ أَجْسَادِكُمْ»
And from him, from Abu Zuhayr al-Nahdi, from Adam ibn Ishaq, from some of his companions: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام said: “Hold fast to the night prayer, for it is the practice of your Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, the way of the righteous before you, and a repellent of illness from your bodies.”
