سنن نسائی · Hadith 1710
Husain narrated from Habib bin Abi Thabit, from Muhammad bin ‘Ali bin ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abbas, from his father, that his grand father said: “I was with the Prophet li and he got up and performed Wudu’ and cleaned his teeth while reciting this Verse until he finished: ‘Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the Earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding.’ Then he prayed two Rak’ahs, then he went back and slept until I heard him breathing deeply. Then he got up and performed Wudu and cleaned his teeth. Then he prayed two Rak’ahs, then he slept, then he got up and performed Wuصلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم la’ and cleaned his teeth and prayed two Rak’ahs and prayed Witr with three Rakahs.” (Sahih)
