أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ الرَّازِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ صَلاَةٌ صَلاَّهَا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَنَامَ عَنْهَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ صَدَقَةً تَصَدَّقَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْهِ وَكَتَبَ لَهُ أَجْرَ صَلاَتِهِ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Abu Dawud informed us; he said: Muhammad ibn Sulayman narrated to us; he said: Abu Ja‘far al-Razi narrated to us, from Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir, from Sa‘id ibn Jubayr, from al-Aswad ibn Yazid, from ‘A’ishah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Whoever has a regular prayer that he performs at night but sleeps through it, that is charity Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has bestowed upon him, and He records for him the reward of his prayer.’
