Question:
May Allah reward you with good. This questioner, Abu Ala, asks: Has it been reported, O Shaykh, that there is a hadith saying, "Winter is the spring of the believer; the night is long, so he stands in prayer, and the day is short, so he fasts"?
Answer:
I believe this is from the words of some of the Salaf. 'Umar used to rejoice in winter because of the length of the night, the length of standing in prayer at night. Yes.
