أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا هُشَيْمٌ عَنْ خَالِدٍ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ مَالِکِ بْنِ الْحُوَيْرِثِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي فَإِذَا کَانَ فِي وَتْرٍ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ لَمْ يَنْهَضْ حَتَّی يَسْتَوِيَ جَالِسًا
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1157
It was narrated that Malik bin Al-Huwairith said: “I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم pray, and when he was in an odd-numbered Rak’ah, he did not get up until he had settled in a sitting position.” (Sahih)
