Once he waited for Al-Hasan and he did not show up till it was about the usual time for him to start his speech; then he came and apologized saying, "Our neighbors invited us." Then he added, "Narrated Anas, 'Once we waited for the Prophet ﷺ till it was midnight or about midnight. He came and led the prayer, and after finishing it, he addressed us and said, 'All the people prayed and then slept and you had been in prayer as long as you were waiting for it." Al-Hasan said, "The people are regarded as performing good deeds as long as they are waiting for doing good deeds." Al-Hasan's statement is a portion of Anas's [??] Hadith from the Prophet ﷺ .  

انْتَظَرْنَا الْحَسَنَ وَرَاثَ عَلَيْنَا حَتَّى قَرُبْنَا مِنْ وَقْتِ قِيَامِهِ فَجَاءَ فَقَالَ دَعَانَا جِيرَانُنَا هَؤُلاَءِ ثُمَّ قَالَ قَالَ أَنَسٌ نَظَرْنَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ حَتَّى كَانَ شَطْرُ اللَّيْلِ يَبْلُغُهُ فَجَاءَ فَصَلَّى لَنَا ثُمَّ خَطَبَنَا فَقَالَ أَلاَ إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ صَلَّوْا ثُمَّ رَقَدُوا وَإِنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَزَالُوا فِي صَلاَةٍ مَا انْتَظَرْتُمُ الصَّلاَةَ قَالَ الْحَسَنُ وَإِنَّ الْقَوْمَ لاَ يَزَالُونَ بِخَيْرٍ مَا انْتَظَرُوا الْخَيْرَ قَالَ قُرَّةُ هُوَ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَنَسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ  

[Machine] We waited for Al-Hasan and Al-Wathah until we approached the time of prayer. He came and said, "Our neighbors invited us." Then he said, Anas ibn Malik said, "We waited for the Prophet ﷺ one night until half of the night had passed. He came and prayed with us, then he delivered a sermon and said, 'Indeed, the people have prayed and went to sleep, but you will continue in prayer since you have been waiting for it.'"  

انْتَظَرْنَا الْحَسَنَ وَرَاثَ عَلَيْنَا حَتَّى قَرُبْنَا مِنْ وَقْتِ قِيَامِهِ جَاءَ فَقَالَ دَعَانَا جِيرَانُنَا هَؤُلَاءِ ثُمَّ قَالَ قَالَ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ انْتَظَرْنَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ حَتَّى كَانَ شَطْرُ اللَّيْلِ فَجَاءَ فَصَلَّى لَنَا ثُمَّ خَطَبَنَا فَقَالَ «إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ صَلُّوا وَرَقَدُوا وَإِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَزَالُوا فِي صَلَاةٍ مُذِ انْتَظَرْتُمُ الصَّلَاةَ»
