Is it established that al-Hafiz named the one who does not pray Witr or stand in prayer at night as one who is “pillowing” the Qur’an?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he named those who do not pray Witr or stand in prayer at night, among the memorizers of the Book of Allah, as those who are “pillowing” the Qur’an?

Answer:
No, what is reported from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) when it was mentioned to him that a person sleeps through the night and does not stand in prayer is that he said, “Satan has peed in his ear.” “Satan has peed in his ear” is what I know.
