٤٤٤ - وَرَوَاهُ سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ: نَحْوَ هَذَا، حَدَّثَنَا بِذَلِكَ مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ. وَأَكْثَرُ مَا رُوِيَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً مَعَ الْوِتْرِ، وَأَقَلُّ مَا وُصِفَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ بِاللَّيْلِ تِسْعُ رَكَعَاتٍ.
