(Bukhari and Muslim)

When the Prophet saw learned of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr r.a’s overzealousness in worship, he said,
“Have I not heard that you fast all day and stay up all night in prayer?”
‘Abdullah said, “That is true, O Messenger of Allah.”
The Prophet (S.A.W.) told him: “Do not do that. Fast and break your fast, sleep and get up. For your body has a right over you, your eyes have a right over you, your wife has a right over you, and your visitors have a right over you.
