حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ الشَّافِعِيُّ، إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ أَوْسٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏ "‏ أَحَبُّ الصِّيَامِ إِلَى اللَّهِ صِيَامُ دَاوُدَ. كَانَ يَصُومُ يَوْمًا وَيُفْطِرُ يَوْمًا. وَأَحَبُّ الصَّلاَةِ إِلَى اللَّهِ صَلاَةُ دَاوُدَ. كَانَ يَنَامُ نِصْفَ اللَّيْلِ وَيُصَلِّي ثُلُثَهُ وَيَنَامُ سُدُسَهُ ‏"‏ .

Narrator: ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr

English translation
It was narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The most beloved fast to Allah is the fast of Dawud, for he used to fast one day and not the next. And the most beloved of prayer to Allah is the prayer of Dawud; he used to sleep half of the night, pray one-third of the night and sleep one-sixth of the night.”
বাংলা অনুবাদ
। ‘আবদুল্লাহ্ ইবনু ‘আমর (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ রোযাসমূহের মধ্যে দাঊদ (আঃ)-এর রোযা আল্লাহর নিকট অধিক প্রিয়। তিনি এক দিন রোযা রাখতেন এবং পরবর্তী দিন রোযা রাখতেন না। আল্লাহর নিকট দাঊদ (আঃ)-এর সালাত অধিক প্রিয়। তিনি রাতের অর্ধাংশ ঘুমাতেন, এক-তৃতীয়াংশ সালাতে কাটাতেন এবং আবার এক-ষষ্ঠাংশ ঘুমাতেন।
