Abu Muhammad In at-Tabbän, in the very beginning, would study the whole night, but his mother was merciful to him, and she stopped him from reading at night. He used to take the lamp and put it under the jafanah (a kind of large vessel), and he would pretend to be asleep. When his mother would fall asleep, he would take out the lamp and start to study.
