تَابِعُ مُسْنَدِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
Continuation of the Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 6333 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Satan ties
وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : يَعْقِدُ الشَّيْطَانُ عَلَى قَافِيَةِ رَأْسِ أَحَدِكُمْ ثَلَاثَ عُقَدٍ ، فِي كُلِّ عُقْدَةٍ يَضْرِبُ مَكَانَهَا عَلَيْكَ لَيْلٌ طَوِيلٌ فَارْقُدْ ، فَإِنِ اسْتَيْقَظَ فَذَكَرَ رَبَّهُ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ ، فَإِنْ تَوَضَّأَ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ ، فَإِنْ صَلَّى انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ ، فَأَصْبَحَ نَشِيطَ النَّفْسِ ، طَيِّبَ النَّفْسِ ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ أَصْبَحَ خَبِيثَ النَّفْسِ كَسْلَانَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Satan ties three knots on the back of the head of one of you (when he sleeps), and on each knot he pats, saying: 'You still have a long night ahead, so keep sleeping.' Then if that person wakes up and remembers Allah Almighty, one knot is untied; then if he performs ablution, the second knot is untied; and if he prays, the third knot is untied as well. So he rises in the morning lively and cheerful; otherwise he enters the morning ill-tempered and lazy."
