abudawud:1340Mūsá b. Ismāʿīl And Muslim b. Ibrāhīm > Abān > Yaḥyá > Abū Salamah > ʿĀʾishah

The Prophet ﷺ used to pray thirteen rak'ahs during the night. He would offer eight rak'ahs observing the witr with one rak'ah. Then he prayed (the narrator Muslim said) two rak'ahs after witr prayer in sitting position. When he wished to bow, he stood up and bowed. He used to pray two rak'ahs between the call to the dawn prayer and the iqamah.  

أبو داود:١٣٤٠حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَمُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ عَنْ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُصَلِّي مِنَ اللَّيْلِ ثَلاَثَ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً وَكَانَ يُصَلِّي ثَمَانِيَ رَكَعَاتٍ وَيُوتِرُ بِرَكْعَةٍ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي قَالَ مُسْلِمٌ بَعْدَ الْوِتْرِ ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَا رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ قَامَ فَرَكَعَ وَيُصَلِّي بَيْنَ أَذَانِ الْفَجْرِ وَالإِقَامَةِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ
