The words of Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37538 — The words of Hudhayfah
٣٧٥٣٨ - حدثنا أبو أسامة عن ابن عون عن أبي بشر عن جندب بن عبد اللَّه البجلي ثم (البصري) (١) قال: استأذنت على حذيفة ثلاث مرات فلم يأذن لي، فرجعت فإذا رسوله قد لحقني فقال: ما ردك؟ قلت: ظننت أنك نائم، قال: ما كنت لأنام حتى انظر من أين تطلع الشمس (٢).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jundub bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I asked permission to enter upon Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) three times, but he did not give me permission, so I turned back. Then suddenly his messenger came to me (and brought me). He asked me: What made you go back? I answered: I assumed that you would be asleep. He said: I do not sleep until I have seen where the sun rises.
