وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِي زُهَيْرٍ رَفَعَهُ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« صَلاَةُ اَللَّيْلِ تُبَيِّضُ اَلْوَجْهَ وَ صَلاَةُ اَللَّيْلِ تُطَيِّبُ اَلرِّيحَ وَ صَلاَةُ اَللَّيْلِ تَجْلِبُ اَلرِّزْقَ»
And from him, from Abu Zuhayr, who raised it to Abu Abdillah عليه السلام: Imam عليه السلام said: “The night prayer brightens the face, the night prayer sweetens the scent, and the night prayer brings sustenance.”
