1334. It was reported from Al-Qāsim bin Muḥammad, from 'Aishah, that she said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would pray ten Rak'ahs at night, and make it odd (Witr) by praying one Sajdah (Rak'ah). Then he would pray two Rak'ahs of Fajr,[1] thus making it thirteen Rak'ahs." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
1334 - حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي مِنَ اللَّيْلِ عَشْرَ رَكَعَاتٍ، وَيُوتِرُ بِسَجْدَةٍ، وَيَسْجُدُ سَجْدَتَيِ الْفَجْرِ، فَذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً»

Some narrations list the two Sunnah Rak'ahs of the Fajr prayer under the late-night prayer, the reason being that they were said early, after the Witr prayer. This makes the total number of Rak'ahs thirteen. See number 1339 as well.
