Sleeping after Fajr & Asr is disliked

Image result for Zzzz

By Sheikh Zayd al-Madkhali رحمه الله

Khawwat ibn Jubayr [رحمه الله] said,

نَوْمُ أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ خُرْقٌ، وَأَوْسَطُهُ خُلْقٌ، وَآخِرُهُ حُمْقٌ

Sleeping in the first part of the day is ignorance, and in the middle of the day [good] character, and in the last part of the day stupidity.” 
[Bukhari – Book of Manners #1242]

Imâm Bukhari
رحمه الله said:

As for the hadith, “Whoever sleeps after ‘Asr and loses his mind as a result has no-one to blame but himself,” then it is a weak [narration] and it is known for its weakness.

The Sheikh رحمه الله comments on this narration in his explanation of al-Adab al-Mufrad by Imâm Bukhari on page 363 Vol. 3. He رحمه الله said,

This narration contains beneficial guidance that relates to mankind’s daily and nightly life and conduct. [This guidance] is pertaining to the time of sleeping/napping, and the origin of the time to sleep is during the night.
