Al-Adab Al-Mufrad #1211
Sleep and night lodging
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ الأَحْوَلُ، عَنْ شُمَيْطٍ، أَوْ سُمَيْطٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الأَحْوَصِ قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: النَّوْمُ عِنْدَ الذِّكْرِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ، إِنْ شِئْتُمْ فَجَرِّبُوا، إِذَا أَخَذَ أَحَدُكُمْ مَضْجَعَهُ وَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَنَامَ فَلْيَذْكُرِ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.
'Abdullah said, "Going to sleep during dhikr comes from Shaytan.
if you like, you can put it to the test. When one of you goes to bed and
wants to go to sleep. he should mention Allah Almighty."
