«أحب الصيام إلى الله صيام داود وكان يصوم يوما ويفطر يوما وأحب الصلاة إلى الله صلاة داود كان ينام نصف الليل ويقوم ثلثه وينام سدسه»
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"The most beloved fasting to Allah is the fasting of Dawud (peace be upon him); he would fast one day and leave off fasting one day. And the most beloved prayer to Allah is the prayer of Dawud (peace be upon him); he would sleep half the night, stand in prayer for a third of it, and then sleep for a sixth of it."
