[Machine] Narrated Hafsah, the wife of the Prophet, may ﷺ : The Prophet, may ﷺ , used to lie on his right side when he went to bed, and then say, "O Lord, protect me from Your punishment on the Day You resurrect Your servants three times." He used to use his right hand for eating, drinking, performing ablution, wearing clothes, taking and giving, and he used his left hand for other than that. He used to fast three days in each month: Monday, Thursday, and Monday of the other week.  

أحمد:٢٦٤٦٤حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ بَهْدَلَةَ عَنْ سَوَاءٍ الْخُزَاعِيِّ

عَنْ حَفْصَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَتْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا أَوَى إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ اضْطَجَعَ عَلَى يَدِهِ الْيُمْنَى ثُمَّ قَالَ رَبِّ قِنِي عَذَابَكَ يَوْمَ تَبْعَثُ عِبَادَكَ ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ وَكَانَ يَجْعَلُ يَمِينَهُ لِأَكْلِهِ وَشُرْبِهِ وَوُضُوئِهِ وَثِيَابِهِ وَأَخْذِهِ وَعَطَائِهِ وَكان يَجْعَلُ شِمَالَهُ لِمَا سِوَى ذَلِكَ وَكَانَ يَصُومُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ الِاثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسَ وَالِاثْنَيْنِ مِنَ الْجُمُعَةِ الْأُخْرَى
