Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 38385 — Reports on weeping out of fear

Damrah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Sayyiduna Abu Rayhanah (may Allah be pleased with him) asked the commander of his garrison post for permission to go home. He said: O Abu Rayhanah, how much leave do you want? He replied: One night. When he arrived, he went to the mosque and kept praying until morning. Then he called for his mount and set off for his garrison post. People said: O Abu Rayhanah, did you not ask permission to go home? He replied: My commander gave me leave for only one night, and I neither lie nor break my word. The narrator said: So he left for his garrison post and did not go to his family; and Abu Rayhanah's home was in Bayt al-Maqdis.
