[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to not recite anything from the night prayer while sitting until he reached an older age. And when there remained thirty or forty verses, he would stand and recite them, then he would prostrate.
كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَا يَقْرَأُ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ جَالِسًا حَتَّى دَخَلَ فِي السِّنِّ وَكَانَ إِذَا بَقِيَتْ عَلَيْهِ ثَلَاثُونَ آيَةً أَوْ أَرْبَعُونَ قَامَ فَقَرَأَهَا ثُمَّ سَجَدَ
