دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) وَ أَنَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ عَنْ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ فَقُلْتُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامُ إِي وَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا لَوُلْدُهُ وَ مَا نَحْنُ بِذَوِي قَرَابَتِهِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ إِذَا لَقِيتَ اللَّهَ بِالصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ الْمَفْرُوضَاتِ لَمْ يَسْأَلْكَ عَمَّا سِوَى ذَلِكَ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Jameel Bin Darraj, from Aiz Al-Ahmasy who said, ‘I went over to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> and I wanted to ask him<sup>asws</sup> about the night <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>. So I said, ‘The greetings be upon you<sup>asws</sup>, O son<sup>asws</sup> of Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup>!’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘And upon you be the greetings. Yes, by Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! I<sup>asws</sup> am indeed of his<sup>saww</sup> sons<sup>asws</sup>, and we<sup>asws</sup> are not with his<sup>saww</sup> relatives’ – three times he<sup>asws</sup> said it. Then he<sup>asws</sup> said without me asking him<sup>asws</sup>: ‘When you meet Allah<sup>azwj</sup> with (having prayed) the five Obligatory <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>s, He<sup>azwj</sup> would not ask you of besides that’.
