Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: Saad ibn Hisham said: I came to Madina and called upon Aishah, and said to her: Tell me about the prayer of the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. She said: The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم used to lead the people in the night prayer, and then go to his bed and sleep. When midnight came he got up, went to answer the call of nature and to perform ablution with water. Having performed ablution, he entered the mosque and prayed eight rak'ahs. To my mind he performed the recitation of the Quran, bowing and prostrating equally. He then observed witr with one rak'ah and prayed two rak'ahs sitting. Then he lay down on the ground. Sometimes Bilal came to him and called him for prayer. He then dozed, and sometimes I doubted whether he dozed or not, till he (Bilal) called him for prayer. This is the prayer he offered till he grew old or put on weight. She then mentioned how he put on weight as Allah wished.

سعد بن ہشام کہتے ہیں کہ   میں مدینے آیا اور ام المؤمنین عائشہ رضی اللہ عنہا کے پاس گیا اور کہا: مجھے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی نماز ( تہجد ) کے بارے میں بتائیے، وہ بولیں: رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم لوگوں کو عشاء پڑھاتے، پھر بستر پر آ کر سو جاتے، جب آدھی رات ہو جاتی تو قضائے حاجت اور وضو کے لیے اٹھتے اور وضو کر کے مصلیٰ پر تشریف لے جاتے اور آٹھ رکعتیں پڑھتے، میرے خیال میں آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ہر رکعت میں قرآت، رکوع اور سجدہ برابر برابر کرتے، پھر ایک رکعت پڑھ کر اسے وتر بنا دیتے، پھر دو رکعتیں بیٹھ کر پڑھتے پھر اپنا پہلو ( زمین پر ) رکھتے، کبھی ایسا ہوتا کہ بلال رضی اللہ عنہ آ کر نماز کی خبر دیتے پھر آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ہلکی نیند سوتے، بسا اوقات میں شبہ میں پڑ جاتی کہ آپ سو رہے ہیں یا جاگ رہے ہیں یہاں تک کہ وہ آپ کو نماز کی خبر دیتے، یہی آپ کی نماز ( تہجد ) ہے یہاں تک کہ آپ بوڑھے اور موٹے ہو گئے، پھر انہوں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے گوشت بڑھ جانے کا حال جو اللہ نے چاہا ذکر کیا پھر راوی نے پوری حدیث ذکر کی۔

Abdullah bin Abbas said that he slept with the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. He saw that he (the Prophet) awoke, used tooth-stick, performed ablution, and recited: In the creation of the heavens and earth [3: 190] to the end of the surah. Then he stood up and prayed two rak'ahs in which he prolonged the standing, bowing, and prostrations. He then uttered turned away and slept till he bagan to snore. This he did three times. This made six rak'ahs in all. He would use tooth-stick, then perform ablution, and recite those verses. He then observed the witr prayer. The version of Uthman has: with three rak'ahs. The muadhdhin then came to him and he went out for prayer. The version of Ibn 'Isa adds: He then observed witr prayer ; then Bilal came to him and called him for prayer when the dawn broke. He then prayed the two rak'ahs of the dawn prayer. He then went out for prayer. Then both the narrators were agreed: He beagan to supplicate saying: O Allah, place light in my heart, light in my tongue, light in my hearing, light in my eyesight, light on my right hand, light on my left hand, light in front of me, light behing me, light below me, O Allah, give me abundant light.

Narrated Fadl bin Abbas: I spent a night with the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم to see how he prayed. He got up, performed ablution and prayed two rak'ahs. His standing was like his bowing (i. e. equal in duration), and his bowing was like his prostration (equal in length). Then he slept. Afterwards he awoke, performed ablution, and used tooth-stick. He then recited five verses from Surah Al-Imran: In the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of night and day . He went on doing so till he prayed ten rak'ahs. He then stood up and prayed one rak'ah observing witr with it. In the meantime the muadhdhin called to prayer. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم stood up after the muadhdhin had kept silent. He prayed two light rak'ahs and remained sitting till he offered the dawn prayer. Abu Dawud said: A part of the tradition transmitted by Ibn Bashshar remained hidden from me.
