عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَحَبْلٌ مَمْدُودٌ بَيْنَ سَارِيَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ ((مَا هَذَا)) فَقَالُوا لِزَيْنَبَ فَإِذَا كَسِلَتْ أَوْ فَتَرَتْ أَمْسَكَتْ بِهِ فَقَالَ ((حُلُّوهُ)) ثُمَّ قَالَ ((لِيُصَلِّ أَحَدُكُمْ نَشَاطَهُ فَإِذَا كَسِلَ أَوْ فَتَرَ فَلْيَقْعُدْ)) وَفِي لَفْظٍ ((لَتُصَلِّ مَا عَقَلَتْ فَإِذَا غُلِبَتْ فَلْتَنَمْ))
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered the mosque, and there was a rope hanging between two pillars. He (peace be upon him) asked: What is the reason for this? The companions said: This belongs to Sayyida Zainab (may Allah be pleased with her); when she becomes tired, she hangs onto it. He (peace be upon him) said: Untie it; a person should pray in a state of activity and alertness. When he becomes tired, he should leave standing (in prayer). In another narration, it is stated: He should pray as long as he understands (what he is reciting), and when he becomes overpowered (by sleep), he should go to sleep.
