A Muslim must be cautious before attributing any statement to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, for he said: "Whoever narrates a Hadith from me which he knows to be a lie is himself one of the liars" (Narrated by Muslim), and "Whoever intentionally fabricates a lie against me, let him take his seat in Hellfire" (Agreed upon). The statements mentioned in the question, "four things prevent sustenance: sleeping in the morning," and "four things increase sustenance," have not been authentically narrated from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, except through extremely weak chains.
