وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي قَوْلِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ« فَالْمُقَسِّمٰاتِ أَمْراً» قَالَ« اَلْمَلاَئِكَةُ تُقَسِّمُ أَرْزَاقَ بَنِي آدَمَ مَا بَيْنَ طُلُوعِ اَلْفَجْرِ إِلَى طُلُوعِ اَلشَّمْسِ فَمَنْ نَامَ فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمَا نَامَ عَنْ رِزْقِهِ»
And (Imam) al-Sadiq عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said regarding the saying of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Majestic: ‘"By those who distribute [affairs] by command"‘: (Surah Dhariyat 51:4). (Imam عليه السلام said) "The angels distribute the sustenance of the children of Adam between the rising of the dawn and the rising of the sun. So whoever sleeps during that time has slept away his sustenance."
