الترمذي:١٦٨ – حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَخْبَرَنَا عَوْفٌ قَالَ أَحْمَدُ وَحَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ هُوَ الْمُهَلَّبِيُّ وَإِسْمَاعِيلُ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ جَمِيعًا عَنْ عَوْفٍ عَنْ سَيَّارِ بْنِ سَلاَمَةَ هُوَ أَبُو الْمِنْهَالِ الرِّيَاحِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ قَالَ

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَكْرَهُ النَّوْمَ قَبْلَ الْعِشَاءِ وَالْحَدِيثَ بَعْدَهَا قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَأَنَسٍ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ وَقَدْ كَرِهَ أَكْثَرُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ النَّوْمَ قَبْلَ صَلاَةِ الْعِشَاءِ وَالْحَدِيثَ بَعْدَهَا وَرَخَّصَ فِي ذَلِكَ بَعْضُهُمْ وَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ أَكْثَرُ الأَحَادِيثِ عَلَى الْكَرَاهِيَةِ وَرَخَّصَ بَعْضُهُمْ فِي النَّوْمِ قَبْلَ صَلاَةِ الْعِشَاءِ فِي رَمَضَانَ وَسَيَّارُ بْنُ سَلاَمَةَ هُوَ أَبُو الْمِنْهَالِ الرِّيَاحِيُّ
