حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مُوسَی قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِکٌ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ عَائِشَةَ کَيْفَ کَانَتْ صَلاةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلی الله عليه وسلم فِي رَمَضَانَ فَقَالَتْ مَا کَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلی الله عليه وسلم لِيَزِيدَ فِي رَمَضَانَ وَلا فِي غَيْرِهِ عَلَی إِحْدَی عَشْرَةَ رَکْعَةً يُصَلِّي أَرْبَعًا لا تَسْأَلْ عَنْ حُسْنِهِنَّ وَطُولِهِنَّ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي أَرْبَعًا لا تَسْأَلْ عَنْ حُسْنِهِنَّ وَطُولِهِنَّ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي ثَلاثًا قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَتَنَامُ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُوتِرَ فَقَالَ يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ عَيْنَيَّ تَنَامَانِ وَلا يَنَامُ قَلْبِي

Abi Salamah bin 'Abdurrahmaan Radiyallahu 'Anhu says he asked 'Aayesha Radiyallahu 'Anha "How was the salaah (how many rak'ah tahajjud was performed) of Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam in Ramadaan? "She replied: "Rasulullah Sallallhu 'Alayhi Wasallam did not perform more than eleven rak'ahs during Ramadhaan or after Ramadhaan. (Eight rak'ahs tahajjud and three rak'ahs witr). He performed four rak'ahs. Do not ask of its length or how wounderfully (i.e. with humbellness and concentration) it was performed. In the same manner he performed four more rak'ahs. In the same manner he again performed four rak'ahs, and do not ask of its length or how wounderfully it was performed. After that he performed three rakahs witr". Aayesha Radiyallahu 'Anha says "I said: "O Messenger of Allah. Do you sleep before you perform witr?" He repiled: "O Aayesha, my eyes sleep, but my heart remains awake". (This is a special gift to the ambiyah (prophets) that their hearts remain awake at all times)

Hudhayfah bin Al Yamaan Radiyallahu 'Anhu says he performed salaah with Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam one night. (It has been reported in a few narrations that this incident took place during a night of Ramadaan. It is possible that this was tahajjud or Taraweeh salaah). After commencing the salaah he recited:Allahu Akbar, dhul malakuti wal jabaruti wal kibri-yaa-i wal a-za-matiTranslation: Allah is supreme! Lord of Dominion, Power, Majesty, and Magnificence.He then recited (after the Faatihah) Surah Baqarah, and performed ruku'. The length of the ruku' was as long as the qiyaam (standing posture). (The 'ulama give two meanings to this and both are possible. The first is that the ruku' was as long as the qiyaam. For example, if the qiyaam was for one hour, the ruku' was also for about one hour. Accordingly, this mas-alah is established, that if the ruku' and sajdah are longer than normal, the salaah will be valid. The second is that the qiyaam was longer than normal. In this instance if the qiyaam was for an hour, and the ruku' for fifteen minutes, then too it will be truly explaining this hadith. According to this saying the salaah remains in the normal manner. i.e. a fundamental action of salaah that was long, like qiyaam, remained long. And those that were short, like ruku' or sajdah, remained short. But certainly every fundamental action was longer than normal). Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam repeated:Subhaana rabbiyal azimi-Subhaana rabbiyal azimiTranslation: Glory be to my Lord the Magnificient.He lifted his head from the ruku' and stood. This standing was also long like that of the ruku'. At this moment he repeated:Li rabbiyal hamdu-Li rabbiyal hamdu.Translation: All praises are for my Lord. All praises are for my Lord.He then performed the sajdah. The sajdah was as long as the qawmah (standing in between the ruku' and sajdah). and he recited:Subhaana rabbiyal aa'laa-Subhaana rabbiyal aa'laaTranslation: Glory be to my Lord the Exalted. Glory be to my Lord the Exalted.He then sat up from the sajdah. This sitting was also long as that of the sajdah. Here he repeated:Rabbigh-fir lee-Rabbig-fir leeTranslation: O Lord forgive me. O Lord forgive me.Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam recited in this salaah Surah Baqarah, Surah Aali 'Imraan, Surah Nisaa, Surah Maa-idah or Surah An'aam. The narrator (Sayyidina Shu'ba Radiyallahu'Anhu) is in doubt regarding the last two surahs, whether is it Maa-idah or An'aam.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ عَنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ الْعَبْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الْمُتَوَکِّلِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلی الله عليه وسلم بِآيَةٍ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ لَيْلَةً

'Aayeshah Radiyallahu 'Anha says: "Once at night (salaah time), Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam kept on repeating one aayah."

عَائِشَةَ ← أَبِي الْمُتَوَکِّلِ ← إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ الْعَبْدِيِّ ← عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ ← أَبُو بَکْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ

'Abdullah bin Mas'ud Radiyallahu 'Anhu reports: "Once at night I performed salaah with Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam. Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam stood for such a long time that I intended to commit an evil deed". Someone asked him what deed did you intend to commit? He replied. "To sit down and leave Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam alone".

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مُوسَی الأَنْصَارِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِکٌ عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلی الله عليه وسلم کَانَ يُصَلِّي جَالِسًا فَيَقْرَأُ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ فَإِذَا بَقِيَ مِنْ قِرَائَتِهِ قَدْرُ مَا يَکُونُ ثَلاثِينَ أَوْ أَرْبَعِينَ آيَةً قَامَ فَقَرَأَ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ ثُمَّ رَکَعَ وَسَجَدَ ثُمَّ صَنَعَ فِي الرَّکْعَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ مِثْلَ ذَلِکَ

'Aayeshah Radiyallahu 'Anha says: "Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam Performed salaah (in old age) in a sitting posture (due to reciting lengthy portions) When about thirty or forty aayaat were left he stood up and recited (completed) these. He then performed the ruku' and sajdah. He did the same in the second rak'ah".

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ الْحَذَّائُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ عَنْ صَلاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلی الله عليه وسلم عَنْ تَطَوُّعِهِ فَقَالَتْ کَانَ يُصَلِّي لَيْلا طَوِيلا قَائِمًا وَلَيْلا طَوِيلا قَاعِدًا فَإِذَا قَرَأَ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ رَکَعَ وَسَجَدَ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ وَإِذَا قَرَأَ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ رَکَعَ وَسَجَدَ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ

'Abdullah bin Shaqeeq Radiyallahu' 'Anhu reports that he asked 'Aayeshah Radiyallahu 'Anha regarding the nawaafil prayers. She replied: "Rasulullah Sallallahu'Alayhi Wasallam performed nawaafil in the long part of the night whilst standing, and performed nawaafil in the long part of the night whilst sitting. His noble habit was that if he stood and recited (the Qur-aan) he performed ruku' and sajdah in a standing posture. If he recited whilst sitting, he performed the ruku' and sajdah in a sitting posture".

Hafsah Radiyallahu 'Anha, the wife of Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam reports: " Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam performed while sitting. He recited surah in it, and recited with such tarteel (distinct and clear intonation), that the surah became longer than one that is lengthier".

حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الزَّعْفَرَانِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ أَنَّ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلی الله عليه وسلم لَمْ يَمُتْ حَتَّی کَانَ أَکْثَرُ صَلاتِهِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ

Aayesha Radiyallahu 'Anha reports: "Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam performed most of his (nafl) salaah in a sitting posture before he passed away".

عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ ← ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، ← الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ← الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الزَّعْفَرَانِيُّ

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلی الله عليه وسلم رَکْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ الظُّهْرِ وَرَکْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَهَا وَرَکْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ الْمَغْرِبِ فِي بَيْتِهِ وَرَکْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ الْعِشَائِ فِي بَيْتِهِ

Ibn 'Umar Radiyallahu 'Anhu reports: "I performed two rak'ahs before and after zuhr, and two rak'ahs after maghrib with Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam in his house, and (also) two rak'ahs after 'eshaa in his house".

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ حَدَّثَتْنِي حَفْصَةُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صلی الله عليه وسلم کَانَ يُصَلِّي رَکْعَتَيْنِ حِينَ يَطْلُعُ الْفَجْرُ وَيُنَادِي الْمُنَادِي قَالَ أَيُّوبُ وَأُرَاهُ قَالَ خَفِيفَتَيْنِ

Ibn 'Umar Radiyallahu 'Anhu reports.. "Hafsah (my sister, Ummul Mu-mineen) related to me that when the time of fajr began (subh saadiq), and the mu-adh-dhin called out the adhaan, Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam performed two short rak-'ahs".
