QUESTION:

 I follow the risalah of Ayatullah Sistani. 

 I remember hearing a hadeeth in which Imam Ali(AS) came
 to the mosque and found Ibn Muljam sleeping in the masjid. 
 Imam Ali asked him not to sleep in that way because it was the
 way Ahl AlNaar (people in hell) sleep.  Do you know of such a hadeeth?
 and if so, what is that way of sleeping so one could try to avoid?

ANSWER:
 
 Salaamun Alaykum
 
 According to the hadith, Imam Ali (A.S.) found Ibn Muljam sleeping on his
 stomach and advised him not to sleep in that manner. It is recommended not
 to sleep in such a position.
