Summary
A report that Malik transmits from Hisham ibn Urwa from his father from Aisha, in the chapter on night prayer: the Prophet ﷺ ordered whoever dozes during his prayer to sleep until the drowsiness leaves him, because if he prays while drowsy he may go to ask forgiveness and revile himself without knowing. The editor cites al-Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawud, Ibn Hibban and al-Bayhaqi, and refers to al-Tamhid and to his commentary on al-Tirmidhi (355). 1
