[Machine] Abdullah said, when the Prophet ﷺ returned to Hudaybiyah, "Who will guard us tonight?" Abdullah replied, "I will." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, "Who will guard us tonight?" Abdullah responded again, "I will." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ repeated, "Who will guard us tonight?" Abdullah replied, "The people remained silent, so I said, 'I will then.'" He said, "So I guarded them until the time of dawn came upon us." Abdullah continued, "I fell asleep and did not wake up until the heat of the sun was on our shoulders. Prophet Muhammad ﷺ stood up and performed his usual actions." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If Allah had willed for you not to sleep, you would not have slept. However, Allah wanted it to be a Sunnah for those who come after you, for those who sleep or forget."  

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ لَمَّا رَجَعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ زَمَانَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ قَالَ «مَنْ يَحْرُسُنَا اللَّيْلَةَ؟» قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ أَنَا قَالَ «إِنَّكَ تَنَامُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ يَحْرُسُنَا اللَّيْلَةَ؟» قَالَ فَقُلْتُ أَنَا قَالَ «إِنَّكَ تَنَامُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ يَحْرُسُنَا اللَّيْلَةَ؟» قَالَ «وَسَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ» فَقُلْتُ أَنَا قَالَ «فَأَنْتَ إِذًا» قَالَ «فَحَرَسْتُهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ فِي وَجْهِ الصُّبْحِ أَدْرَكَنِي» مَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «فَنِمْتُ فَمَا اسْتَيْقَظْتُ إِلَّا بِحَرِّ الشَّمْسِ عَلَى أَكْتَافِنَا فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَنَعَ كَمَا كَانَ يَصْنَعُ» فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ لَا تَنَامُوا عَنْهَا لَمْ تَنَامُوا وَلَكِنْ أَرَادَ اللهُ أَنْ تَكُونَ سُنَّةً لِمَنْ بَعْدَكُمْ لِمَنْ نَامَ أَوْ نَسِيَ»
