[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Excessive sleeping is not negligence, but excessive wakefulness is."  

أحمد:٢٢٦٠٠حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُبَارَكُ عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ التَّفْرِيطُ فِي النَّوْمِ إِنَّمَا التَّفْرِيطُ فِي الْيَقَظَةِ

Collected by Ibn Ḥibbān

ذِكْرُ خَبَرٍ سَادِسٍ يَدُلُّ عَلَى أَنَّ تَارِكَ الصَّلَاةِ مُتَعَمِّدًا مِنْ غَيْرِ عُذْرٍ لَا يُوجِبُ عَلَيْهِ ذَلِكَ إِطْلَاقُ الْكُفْرِ الَّذِي يُخْرِجُهُ عَنْ مِلَّةِ الْإِسْلَامِ بِهِ

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'There is no negligence when one sleeps, rather negligence is when one does not offer one prayer until the time of the next prayer comes and he realizes that he has missed a prayer.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 616)   

ابن حبّان:١٤٦٠أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا حَبَّانُ بْنُ مُوسَى أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَيْسَ فِي النَّوْمِ تَفْرِيطٌ إِنَّمَا التَّفْرِيطُ عَلَى مَنْ لَمْ يُصَلِّ الصَّلَاةَ حَتَّى يَجِيءَ وَقْتُ صَلَاةٍ أُخْرَى»
