Examples from the Qur'an

And made your sleep [a means for] rest

Surah 78:9 — Read full ayah

And it is He who has made the night for you as clothing and sleep [a means for] rest and has made the day a resurrection.

Surah 25:47 — Read full ayah

Allāh - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Self-Sustaining. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursī extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.
