1147. Narrated Abū Salma bin 'Abdur Raḥmān: I asked 'Āishah رضي الله عنها about the Šalāt (prayer) of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ during the month of Ramaḍān." She said, "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ never exceeded eleven Rak'ā in Ramaḍān or in other months; he used to offer four Rak'ā — do not ask me about their beauty and length, then four Rak'ā, do not ask me about their beauty and length, and then three Rak'ā." 'Āishah رضي الله عنها further said, "I said, 'O Allāh's Messenger! Do you sleep before offering the Witr prayers?' He replied, 'O 'Āishah! My eyes sleep but my heart remains awake!'"

1147 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ المَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ: أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، كَيْفَ كَانَتْ صَلاَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي رَمَضَانَ؟ فَقَالَتْ: «مَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَزِيدُ فِي رَمَضَانَ وَلاَ فِي غَيْرِهِ عَلَى إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً يُصَلِّي أَرْبَعًا، فَلاَ تَسَلْ عَنْ حُسْنِهِنَّ وَطُولِهِنَّ، ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي أَرْبَعًا، فَلاَ تَسَلْ عَنْ حُسْنِهِنَّ وَطُولِهِنَّ، ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي ثَلاَثًا» قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ: أَتَنَامُ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُوتِرَ؟ فَقَالَ: «يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ عَيْنَيَّ تَنَامَانِ وَلاَ يَنَامُ قَلْبِي»
