[Machine] "O father of Haroun, what brings you here?" He said, "I was sent by this lunatic man." He said, "Shall I not tell you a hadith I heard from the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , who said: Prophet Dawud, ﷺ , used to say to his family at a certain hour of the night, 'O family of Dawud, wake up and pray, for this is an hour in which supplication is answered except for a magician or an adulterer.' So he rode a ship in his place and then returned to Ziyad and asked him for his forgiveness."
يَا أَبَا هَارُونَ مَا يُجْلِسُكَ هُنَا؟ فَقَالَ بَعَثَنِي هَذَا عَلَى الْأُبُلَّةِ فَقَالَ أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكَ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ دَاوُدَ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ لِأَهْلِهِ فِي سَاعَةٍ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ يَا آلَ دَاوُدَ قُومُوا فَصَلُّوا فَإِنَّ هَذِهِ سَاعَةٌ يُسْتَجَابُ فِيهَا الدُّعَاءُ إِلَّا لِسَاحِرٍ أَوْ عَشَّارٍ فَرَكِبَ سَفِينَةً مَكَانَهُ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى زِيَادٍ فَاسْتَعْفَاهُ
