Hadith 2558
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ : " أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا عَرَّسَ بِلَيْلٍ اضْطَجَعَ عَلَى يَمِينِهِ ، وَإِذَا عَرَّسَ قَبِيلَ الصُّبْحِ نَصَبَ ذِرَاعَيْهِ نَصْبًا ، وَوضَعَ رَأْسَهُ عَلَى كَفَّيْهِ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) dismounted from his mount at night to rest, he would lie down on his right side. And when he dismounted to rest before morning (in the last part of the night), he would prop up his arms and rest his blessed head in his two palms.
