Three Types of Sleep
It is reported that ?Abdull?h b. Al-?Amr b. Al-??? – All?h be pleased with them – said:
There are three types of sleep: the incompetent’s sleep, proper sleep, and stupid sleep.

As for the proper sleep, it is the midday nap (qayl?lah). And as for the stupid sleep, it is to sleep when it is time to pray.
