Sunan Ibn Majah 1370 (Book 5, Hadith 568) #30722
The Benefits of Refreshing Sleep

SUMMARY: It is better to sleep until one feels refreshed rather than praying while feeling drowsy, as one may end up cursing themselves instead of seeking forgiveness.

It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "The Prophet said: 'If anyone of you becomes drowsy, let him sleep until he feels refreshed, for he does not know, if he prays when he feels drowsy, he may want to say words seeking forgiveness but (instead) he ends up cursing himself.’"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَرْوَانَ، مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْعُثْمَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، جَمِيعًا عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ـ ـ ‏ "‏ إِذَا نَعَسَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَرْقُدْ حَتَّى يَذْهَبَ عَنْهُ النَّوْمُ فَإِنَّهُ لاَ يَدْرِي إِذَا صَلَّى وَهُوَ نَاعِسٌ لَعَلَّهُ يَذْهَبُ يَسْتَغْفِرُ فَيَسُبُّ نَفْسَهُ

QUICK LESSONS:
Get enough rest and sleep until you feel refreshed before praying or doing any other activities .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith teaches us the importance of getting enough rest and sleep. It is narrated by 'Aishah that the Prophet said that if anyone feels drowsy, they should take a nap until they feel refreshed. This is because when someone prays while feeling drowsy, they may end up saying words that are not meant for prayer and instead curse themselves. Therefore, it is important to get enough rest so that we can be alert and focused when we pray or do any other activities. We should also remember to seek forgiveness from Allah for our mistakes and shortcomings in order to stay on the right path.
