[Machine] It was reported that a man had committed a sin against the boundaries of Allah after dinner. He said, "I dislike delaying the boundaries of Allah until morning, so I will uphold it during the night."  

الزهد لأحمد:١٦٩٢حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ سُوَيْدٍ عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ قَالَ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ عُمَّالِ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ يُشْبِهُ بِهِ إِلَّا عَمْرَو بْنَ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ كَانَ عَامِلًا لَهُ عَلَى عُمَانَ فَبَلَغَ مِنْ لِينِهِ

أَنَّهُ أُتِيَ بِرَجُلٍ قَدْ أَصَابَ حَدًّا مِنْ حُدُودِ اللَّهِ ﷻ بَعْدَ الْعِشَاءِ فَقَالَ «إِنِّي أَكْرَهُ أَنْ أُؤَخِّرَ حُدُودَ اللَّهِ حَتَّى أُصْبِحَ فَأَقَامَهُ عَلَيْهِ لَيْلًا»
