Shaykh al-Albani deemed the "Whoever sleeps after Asr and loses his mind, let him blame no one but himself" as weak. He cited the response of al-Layth ibn Sad when asked about his sleeping after Asr, to which he replied, "I will not abandon that which benefits me due to a hadith narrated by Ibn Lahia from Aqil." Al-Albani pointed out that this demonstrates al-Layth's profound understanding and knowledge, criticizing those who refrain from sleeping after Asr based on a weak hadith, yet act upon it in matters concerning the virtues of deeds.
