[Machine] Some people would come and recite to him until the sun rises and the prayer becomes possible for him. He would then stand to pray until midday, then return to his house. It would be said, and he would return to the mosque when the sun sets and pray until he prays Dhuhr. Then he would pray until he prays Asr, and when he prays Asr, he would move to the side of the mosque and say "Who would recite?" It would be said, and they would come and recite to him until the sun sets. He would then pray Maghrib, and then he would pray the final Isha prayer. Then he would return to his house and eat two loaves of bread, then he would take a short nap and then he would wake up. When it was the time of Sahar, he would eat his other loaf of bread and drink a sip of water. Then he would go out to the mosque. Khalaf said, and one of our companions told us that Mansour bin Zadhan used to do all of this, and he would excel especially, not spending every night until his turban was soaked with his tears, then he would put it
