Hadith 1363
۞
Hadith.1371 - A man came to Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) and complained to him about his dire need, exaggerating his complaint until it seemed as though he was on the brink of starvation.
Abu Abdullah (as) asked him, "Do you pray at night?"
The man replied: "Yes."
Abu Abdullah (as) turned to his companions and said: "The one who claims to pray at night but goes hungry during the day is lying. Indeed, Allah (swt), Blessed and Exalted, has guaranteed the sustenance of the day for those who perform the night prayer."
1371 - وَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَشَكَا إِلَيْهِ اَلْحَاجَةَ فَأَفْرَطَ فِي اَلشِّكَايَةِ حَتَّى كَادَ أَنْ يَشْكُوَ اَلْجُوعَ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «يَا هَذَا أَ تُصَلِّي بِاللَّيْلِ» فَقَالَ اَلرَّجُلُ نَعَمْ فَالْتَفَتَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ «كَذَبَ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّهُ يُصَلِّي بِاللَّيْلِ وَ يَجُوعُ بِالنَّهَارِ إِنَّ اَللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وتَعَالَى ضَمَّنَ صَلاَةَ اَللَّيْلِ قُوتَ اَلنَّهَارِ.
