Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) said that Jibril (peace be upon him) came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Muhammad, live as long as you wish, for you must eventually die; do whatever deeds you wish, for you will be recompensed for them; love whomever you wish, for you must part from him. And know that the honour of the believer is standing in prayer at night, and his dignity lies in being independent of people."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Muhammad bin Uyaynah except Zafir, and Muhammad bin Uyaynah is the brother of Sufyan (bin Uyaynah)."
