Sunan Ibn Majah

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَکِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ وَأَبِي وَإِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ السَّلُولِيِّ قَالَ سَأَلْنَا عَلِيًّا عَنْ تَطَوُّعِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالنَّهَارِ فَقَالَ إِنَّکُمْ لَا تُطِيقُونَهُ فَقُلْنَا أَخْبِرْنَا بِهِ نَأْخُذْ مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْنَا قَالَ کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا صَلَّی الْفَجْرَ يُمْهِلُ حَتَّی إِذَا کَانَتْ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ هَا هُنَا يَعْنِي مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَشْرِقِ بِمِقْدَارِهَا مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ مِنْ هَا هُنَا يَعْنِي مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَغْرِبِ قَامَ فَصَلَّی رَکْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ يُمْهِلُ حَتَّی إِذَا کَانَتْ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ هَا هُنَا يَعْنِي مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَشْرِقِ مِقْدَارَهَا مِنْ صَلَاةِ الظُّهْرِ مِنْ هَا هُنَا قَامَ فَصَلَّی أَرْبَعًا وَأَرْبَعًا قَبْلَ الظُّهْرِ إِذَا زَالَتْ الشَّمْسُ وَرَکْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَهَا وَأَرْبَعًا قَبْلَ الْعَصْرِ يَفْصِلُ بَيْنَ کُلِّ رَکْعَتَيْنِ بِالتَّسْلِيمِ عَلَی الْمَلَائِکَةِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ وَالنَّبِيِّينَ وَمَنْ تَبِعَهُمْ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ فَتِلْکَ سِتَّ عَشْرَةَ رَکْعَةً تَطَوُّعُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالنَّهَارِ وَقَلَّ مَنْ يُدَاوِمُ عَلَيْهَا قَالَ وَکِيعٌ زَادَ فِيهِ أَبِي فَقَالَ حَبِيبُ بْنُ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ يَا أَبَا إِسْحَقَ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّ لِي بِحَدِيثِکَ هَذَا مِلْئَ مَسْجِدِکَ هَذَا ذَهَبًا

It was narrated that 'Asim bin Damrah As-Saluli said: "We asked 'Ali about the voluntary (prayer) of Allah's Messenger P.B.U.H during the day. He said: 'You will not be able: We said: 'Inform us of it, we will do what we can of it?' So he said: 'When he prayed the Fajr he would delay praying any more. When the sun appeared over there (west) – like it appears here, meaning in the direction of the east, about the amount for the 'Asr prayer from there, meaning in the direction of the west, meaning before the Maghrib – he would stand and perform two Rak'alPI then he would delay praying until the sun appeared over there (west), meaning in the direction of the east, about the amount of the Zuhr prayer from there, then he would stand and perform four . And, four before the Zuhr when the sun passed the zenith, and two Rak'ah after it, and, four before the 'Asr, separating between every two Rak'ah with Taslim upon the angels that are close (to Allah), the Prophets, and those who follow them among the Muslims and the believers:" 'Ali said: "That is sixteen Rak'ah of voluntary prayer which Allah's Messenger P.B.U.H performed during the day. And there are very few who offer them regularly." (Hasan) Waki' said: "My father added: Habib bin Abu Thabit said: '0 Abu Ishaq, this Masjid filled with gold would not be dearer to me than this Hadith of yours:"
