Majma al-Zawaid 3560 — Moderation in deeds and keeping to them
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : كَانَتْ مَوْلَاةٌ لِلنَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - تَصُومُ النَّهَارَ وَتَقُومُ اللَّيْلَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ : إِنَّهَا تَصُومُ النَّهَارَ وَتَقُومُ اللَّيْلَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " إِنَّ لِكُلِّ عَمَلٍ شِرَّةً وَالشِّرَّةُ إِلَى فَتْرَةٍ فَمَنْ كَانَتْ فَتْرَتُهُ إِلَى سُنَّتِي فَقَدِ اهْتَدَى وَمَنْ كَانَتْ فَتْرَتُهُ إِلَى غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ " .

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had a freed slave-woman who used to fast during the day and perform voluntary prayers at night. It was said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "She fasts during the day and keeps performing voluntary prayers at night." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Every deed has a period of zeal (that is, a person is energetic for it), and every zeal is followed by a lull (that is, an element of weakness or laziness). So whoever's lull leads towards my Sunnah will be rightly guided, and whoever's lull leads elsewhere will go astray."
