The caravans of the pious and righteous have passed

Reference: Sifatus-Safwah – Volume 4, Page 35

Habeeb al-‘Ajamee slept one night, and his wife came to wake him up [to encourage him to offer the night prayer], and said to him:

Wake up O man! Night has passed, and day has arrived, and before you is a long journey and [yet you have] little provisions; The caravans of the pious and righteous have passed by and we have remained [behind].
