The Prophet ﷺ delayed the night prayer until late, so Umar went out and called, "The prayer, Messenger of Allah! The women and children have fallen asleep."The Prophet ﷺ came out with water dripping from his head, saying, "Were it not that I would impose hardship on my community," (Sufyan also said, "on my community,") "I would have ordered them to pray at this hour."Ibn Jurayj reported from Ata, from Ibn Abbas, that the Prophet ﷺ delayed this prayer. Umar came and said, "Messenger of Allah, the women and children have fallen asleep."He came out wiping water from the side of his head, saying, "This is indeed its proper time, were it not that I would impose hardship on my community."Amr said, "Ata narrated to us," without mentioning Ibn Abbas in the chain. Amr said, "his head was dripping," while Ibn Jurayj said, "wiping water from the side of his head." Amr said, "were it not that I would impose hardship on my community," and Ibn Jurayj said, "This is indeed its proper time, were it not that I would impose hardship on my community."Ibrahim bin al-Mundhir said, Maan narrated to us, Muhammad bin Muslim narrated to me, from Amr, from Ata, from Ibn Abbas, from the Prophet ﷺ.
