English translation

1336. It was reported from Ibn Abi Dhi'b and Al-Awzā'i, from Az-Zuhri, from 'Urwah, from 'Aishah, who said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would pray eleven Rak'ahs between when he was finished with the 'Ishā' until the break of the dawn. He would say the Taslim after every two, and pray Witr with one. And he would remain in prostration, not raising his head, the amount of time that one of you takes to recite fifty verses. And when the Mu'adh-dhin become quiet from the first (call) of the Fajr prayer, he would stand up to pray two brief Rak'ahs, then lie down on his right side, until the Mu'adh-dhin would come to him." (Sahih)

Arabic text

1336 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَنَصْرُ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ، وَهَذَا لَفْظُهُ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ، وَقَالَ نَصْرٌ: عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، وَالْأَوْزَاعِيُّ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، قَالَتْ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي فِيمَا بَيْنَ أَنْ يَفْرُغَ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ، إِلَى أَنْ يَنْصَدِعَ الْفَجْرُ، إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً، يُسَلِّمُ مِنْ كُلِّ ثِنْتَيْنِ، وَيُوتِرُ بِوَاحِدَةٍ، وَيَمْكُثُ فِي سُجُودِهِ قَدْرَ مَا يَقْرَأُ أَحَدُكُمْ خَمْسِينَ آيَةً قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرْفَعَ رَأْسَهُ، فَإِذَا سَكَتَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ بِالْأُولَى مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ، قَامَ، فَرَكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ خَفِيفَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ اضْطَجَعَ عَلَى شِقِّهِ الْأَيْمَنِ، حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُ الْمُؤَذِّنُ»،
