[1794] 187 - (...) It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbâs said: “I stayed overnight in the house of my maternal aunt Maimûnah, and I watched to see how the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ would pray. He got up, urinated, then washed his face and hands, then he slept. Then he got up and went to a waterskin, undid its straps, and poured some water into a bowl or vessel. He tipped it towards himself with his hand and performed Wudû well, a Wudû that was somewhere between the most perfect and the most light. Then I came and stood beside him, and stood on his left. He took hold of me and made me stand on his right. The prayer of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ included thirteen Rak’ah, then he slept until he was breathing deeply. We knew that when he slept he breathed deeply. Then he went out to pray, and he prayed, and said in his prayer, or in his prostration: ‘Allâhummajal fi qalbī nūran, wa fī sam'ī nūranwa fī baṣarī nūran wa 'an yamīnīnūran wa 'an shīmālī nūran waamāmī nūran wa khalfī nūran wafawqī nūran wa taḥtī nūran waj'allī nūrā (O Allāh, put in my heartlight, in my hearing light, in myseeing light, to my right light, tomy left light, in front of me light,behind me light, above me light,below me light, give me light) -or he said: 'waj'alnī nūrā (makeme light.)'''
