Sahih Muslim 774 (Book 6, Hadith 245) #8970
The Dangers of Oversleeping

SUMMARY: Sleeping too much can be a sign of being influenced by the devil.

'Abdullah (b. Mas'ud) reported that a mention was made of a man who slept the whole night till morning. He (the Holy Prophet) remarked: That is a man in whose ears (or in whose ear) the devil urinated.
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَإِسْحَاقُ، قَالَ عُثْمَانُ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ ذُكِرَ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ رَجُلٌ نَامَ لَيْلَةً حَتَّى أَصْبَحَ قَالَ ‏"‏ ذَاكَ رَجُلٌ بَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ فِي أُذُنَيْهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ أَوْ قَالَ ‏"‏ فِي أُذُنِهِ
