Narrated Anas: The Companions during the lifetime of the messenger of Allah used to wait for the night prayer so much so that their heads were lowered down (by dozing). Then they offered prayer and did not perform ablution. Abu Dawud said: Shubah on the authority of Qatadah added: We lowered down our heads (on accounts of dozing) in the day of the Messenger of Allah . Abu Dawud said; This tradition has been transmitted through a different chain of narrators.
