Pearl of Wisdom

'Sleeping can be in four ways: prophets (AS) sleep straight on their backs and their eyes do not sleep waiting for the revelation of Allah. The believer sleeps on his right side facing the qibla. Kings and their children sleep on their left side enjoying what they ate. Satan, his brethren and every insane and deformed person sleeps flat on their front.'

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]

al-Khisal, p. 263, no. 140
