1143 - أجرُ مَن نَوى‏ صَلاةَ اللَّيلِ فَيَنامُ عَنها

1143. THE RECOMPENSE OF ONE WHO Intends to Perform the Night PRAYER, BUT STAYS ASLEEP

3664.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : ما مِن عَبدٍ يُحَدِّثُ نفسَهُ بقيامِ ساعَةٍ مِنَ اللَّيلِ فَيَنامُ عنها إلّا كانَ نَومُهُ صَدَقَةً تَصَدَّقَ اللَّهُ بها علَيهِ وكُتِبَ لَهُ أجرُ مانَوى‏ .¹

3664.The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘Every single servant who makes up his mind to wake up at a particular time in the night [to pray] but stays asleep, his sleep is considered charity that Allah accepts on his behalf, and the same reward for that which he intended is written down for him.’²
