794. 'Uyainah bin 'Abdur-Rahmān narrated: "My father narrated to me: 'The Night of Al-Qadr was mentioned in the presence of Abū Bakrah, so he said: "I do not search for it due to something that I heard from the Messenger of Allāh ﷻ, except for during the last ten (nights); for indeed I heard him say: 'Search for it when nine remain, or; when seven remain, or; when five remain, or; during the last three nights.'" He ('Uyainah) said: "During the twenty (nights) of Ramaḍān, Abū Bakrah used to perform Salāt just as he performed Salāt during the rest of the year. But when the (last) ten began, he would struggle (performing more Salāt during the night)." (Ṣaḥīḥ) Abū 'Eisā said: This Hadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ.

٧٩٤ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عُيَيْنَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي ‌أَبِي ، قَالَ: «ذَكَرْتُ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ عِنْدَ ‌أَبِي بَكْرَةَ فَقَالَ: مَا أَنَا مُلْتَمِسُهَا لِشَيْءٍ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَّا فِي الْعَشْرِ الْأَوَاخِرِ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: الْتَمِسُوهَا فِي تِسْعٍ يَبْقَيْنَ، أَوْ فِي سَبْعٍ يَبْقَيْنَ»، أَوْ فِي خَمْسٍ يَبْقَيْنَ، أَوْ فِي ثَلَاثِ أَوَاخِرِ لَيْلَةٍ. وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرَةَ يُصَلِّي فِي الْعِشْرِينَ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ كَصَلَاتِهِ فِي سَائِرِ السَّنَةِ، فَإِذَا دَخَلَ الْعَشْرُ اجْتَهَدَ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.
