English translation
1621. It was narrated from Kuraib that ‘Abdullâh bin ‘Abbâs told him, he slept at the house of Maimûnah the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, who was his maternal aunt. He said: “I laid down across the mattress and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and his wife lay along it. The Prophet ﷺ slept until midnight, or a little before or a little after. The Prophet ﷺ woke up and began to rub the sleep from his face with his hand. Then he recited the last ten Verses of Sûrah Âl Imrân. Then he got up and went to a water skin that was hanging up and performed Wudû’ from it, and he performed Wudû’ well, then he stood up and prayed.” ‘Abdullâh bin ‘Abbâs said: “I stood up and did what he had done, then I went and stood beside him. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ put his right hand on my head, took hold of my right ear and tweaked it. Then he prayed two Rak’ahs, then two Rak'ahs, then two Rak'ahs, then two Rak'ahs, then two Rak'ahs, then he prayed Witr. Then he lay down until the Mu'adhhdhin came to him and he prayed two brief Rak'ahs." (Sahih)
