Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ اخْتَصَمَ الرِّجَالُ وَالنِّسَاءُ أَيُّهُمْ فِي الْجَنَّةِ أَكْثَرُ فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ مِثْلُ الْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ عَلَى أَضْوَإِ كَوْكَبٍ دُرِّيٍّ لِكُلِّ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ زَوْجَتَانِ اثْنَتَانِ يُرَى مُخُّ سَاقِهِمَا مِنْ وَرَاءِ اللَّحْمِ وَمَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ أَعْزَبُ.
English Translation
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 'Shaytan ties three knots at the back of the head of one of you when he sleeps, placing on each knot: You have a long night ahead of you, so sleep. If he wakes up and remembers Allah, one knot is undone. If he performs ablution, another knot is undone. If he prays, the third knot is undone, and he becomes energetic and cheerful. Otherwise, he becomes sluggish and ill-tempered.'
