بَعَثَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) غُلَاماً لَهُ فِي حَاجَةٍ فَأَبْطَأَ فَخَرَجَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَلَى أَثَرِهِ لَمَّا أَبْطَأَ فَوَجَدَهُ نَائِماً فَجَلَسَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ يُرَوِّحُهُ حَتَّى انْتَبَهَ فَلَمَّا تَنَبَّهَ قَالَ لَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَا فُلَانُ وَ اللَّهِ مَا ذَلِكَ لَكَ تَنَامُ اللَّيْلَ وَ النَّهَارَ لَكَ اللَّيْلُ وَ لَنَا مِنْكَ النَّهَارُ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Abdullah Al Hajjal, from Hafs Bin Abu Ayesha who said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> sent a slave of his<sup>asws</sup> regarding a need, and he was delayed. So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> went out upon his footsteps (to find out) as to what had delayed him, and he<sup>asws</sup> found him sleeping. So he<sup>asws</sup> sat by his head fanning him until he woke up. So when he woke up, Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said to him: ‘O so and so! By Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, that is not for you that you sleep night and the day. For you is the night and for us<sup>asws</sup>, from you, is the day’.
