One night we were travelling with the Prophet (ﷺ) and some people said, "We wish that Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) would take rest along with us during the last hours of the night." He said, "I am afraid that you will sleep and miss the (Fajr) prayer." Bilâl said, I will make you get up." So all slept and Bilâl rested his back against his Raḥila and he too was overwhelmed (by sleep) and slept. The Prophet (ﷺ) got up when the edge of the sun had risen and said, "O Bilâl ! What about your statement?" He replied, "I have never slept such a sleep." "The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allâh took your souls when He wished and returned them to you when He wished. O Bilâl ! Get up and pronounce the Adhân for As-Salat (the prayer)." The Prophet (ﷺ) performed ablution and when the sun came up and became bright, he stood up and offered the Salât (prayer). [1:569-O.B.]
