One night I slept at the house of Maimuna. The Prophet ﷺ woke up, answered the call of nature, washed his face and hands, and then slept. He got up (late at night), went to a water skin, opened the mouth thereof and performed ablution not using much water, yet he washed all the parts properly and then offered the prayer. I got up and straightened my back in order that the Prophet ﷺ might not feel that I was watching him, and then I performed the ablution, and when he got up to offer the prayer, I stood on his left. He caught hold of my ear and brought me over to his right side. He offered thirteen rakʿat in all and then lay down and slept till he started blowing out his breath as he used to do when he slept. In the meantime Bilal informed the Prophet ﷺ of the approaching time for the (Fajr) prayer, and the Prophet offered the Fajr (Morning) prayer without performing new ablution. He used to say in his invocation, Allahumma ijʿal fi qalbi nuran wa fi basari nuran, wa fi samʿi nuran, waʿan yamini nuran, waʿan yasari nuran, wa fawqi nuran, wa tahti nuran, wa amami nuran, wa khalfi nuran, wajʿal li nuran." Kuraib (a sub narrator) said, "I have forgotten seven other words, (which the Prophet ﷺ mentioned in this invocation). I met a man from the offspring of Al-ʿAbbas and he narrated those seven things to me, mentioning, '(Let there be light in) my nerves, my flesh, my blood, my hair and my body,' and he also mentioned two other things."  

بِتُّ عِنْدَ مَيْمُونَةَ فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَتَى حَاجَتَهُ غَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ وَيَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ نَامَ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَأَتَى الْقِرْبَةَ فَأَطْلَقَ شِنَاقَهَا ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأَ وُضُوءًا بَيْنَ وُضُوءَيْنِ لَمْ يُكْثِرْ وَقَدْ أَبْلَغَ فَصَلَّى فَقُمْتُ فَتَمَطَّيْتُ كَرَاهِيَةَ أَنْ يَرَى أَنِّي كُنْتُ أَتَّقِيهِ فَتَوَضَّأْتُ فَقَامَ يُصَلِّي فَقُمْتُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ فَأَخَذَ بِأُذُنِي فَأَدَارَنِي عَنْ يَمِينِهِ فَتَتَامَّتْ صَلاَتُهُ ثَلاَثَ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً ثُمَّ اضْطَجَعَ فَنَامَ حَتَّى نَفَخَ وَكَانَ إِذَا نَامَ نَفَخَ فَآذَنَهُ بِلاَلٌ بِالصَّلاَةِ فَصَلَّى وَلَمْ يَتَوَضَّأْ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ فِي دُعَائِهِ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ فِي قَلْبِي نُورًا وَفِي بَصَرِي نُورًا وَفِي سَمْعِي نُورًا وَعَنْ يَمِينِي نُورًا وَعَنْ يَسَارِي نُورًا وَفَوْقِي نُورًا وَتَحْتِي نُورًا وَأَمَامِي نُورًا وَخَلْفِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ لِي نُورًا قَالَ كُرَيْبٌ وَسَبْعٌ فِي التَّابُوتِ فَلَقِيتُ رَجُلاً مِنْ وَلَدِ الْعَبَّاسِ فَحَدَّثَنِي بِهِنَّ فَذَكَرَ عَصَبِي وَلَحْمِي وَدَمِي وَشَعَرِي وَبَشَرِي وَذَكَرَ خَصْلَتَيْنِ  

I spent a night with my maternal aunt (sister of my mother) Maimuna. The Apostle of Allah ﷺ got up during the night and relieved himself, then washed his face and hands and went to sleep. He then got up again, and came to the water skin and loosened its straps, then performed good ablution between the two extremes. He then stood up and observed prayer. I also stood up and stretched my body fearing that he might be under the impression that I was there to find out (what he did at night). So I also performed ablution and stood up to pray, but I stood on his left. He took hold of my hand and made me go around to his right side. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ completed thirteen rakʿahs of his night prayer. He then lay down and slept and snored (and it was his habit to snore while asleep). Then Bilal came and he informed him about the prayer. He (the Holy Prophet) then stood up for prayer and did not perform ablution, and his supplication included these words: "O Allah, place light in my heart, light in my sight, light in my hearing, light on my right hand, light on my left hand, light above me, light below me, light in front of me, light behind me, and enhance light for me." Kuraib (the narrator) said: There are seven (words more) which are in my heart (but I cannot recall them) and I met some of the descendants of Al-ʿAbbas and they narrated these words to me and mentioned in them: (Light) in my sinew, in my flesh, in my blood, in my hair, in my skin, and made a mention of two more things.

[Machine] I stayed at my aunt Maymuna bint al-Harith's house. The Prophet ﷺ woke up at night and went to the bathroom. He washed his face and hands, then stood up to pray at night. He went to the nearest water source and performed ablution between two ablutions, without excessive use of water. Then, he stood up to pray. He said, "I tried to make sure that he did not notice that I was observing him. Then, I stood up and did as he did. I stood on his left side, and he began to recite until he turned towards me and held my ear, so I was on his right side while he was praying. He completed his prayer with thirteen units of prayer, including the two units of the dawn prayer. Then, he lay down and slept until he snored. Bilal came and called for prayer, so he stood up, prayed, and did not perform ablution again."  

بِتُّ عِنْدَ خَالَتِي مَيْمُونَةَ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَأَتَى الْحَاجَةَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ وَيَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَامَ يُصَلِّي مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَأَتَى الْقِرْبَةَ فَتَوَضَّأَ وُضُوءًا بَيْنَ وُضُوءَيْنِ لَمْ يُكْثِرْ وَقَدْ أَبْلَغَ ثُمَّ قَامَ يُصَلِّي قَالَ وتَخَطَّيْتُ كَرَاهِيَةَ أَنْ يَرَى أَنِّي كُنْتُ أُبَيِّتَهُ يَعْنِي أُراقِبَهُ ثُمَّ قُمْتُ فَفَعَلْتُ كَمَا فَعَلَ فَقُمْتُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ فَأَخَذَ بِمَا يَلِي أُذُنِي حَتَّى أَدَارَنِي فَكُنْتُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فَتَتَامَّتْ صَلَاتُهُ إِلَى ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً مِنْهَا رَكْعَتَا الْفَجْرِ ثُمَّ اضْطَجَعَ فَنَامَ حَتَّى نَفَخَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ بِلَالٌ فَآذَنَهُ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّى وَلَمْ يَتَوَضَّأْ  

[Machine] I stayed at my aunt Maymuna's house, and I watched the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to see how much he prayed. He stood for a while, then he approached the pitcher, untied his waistcloth, poured water into a basin or jug, and washed his face and arms. Then he slept for a while, then he woke up and performed a beautiful ablution between the two ablutions. He stood up to pray, and I approached and stood on his left side. He took hold of me and moved me to his right side, completing the Prophet's prayer ﷺ during the night with thirteen rak'ahs. Then he slept, and his sleep was known by his breath. He slept until he snored, then he got up to perform the prayer. During his prayer or supplication, he used to say, "O Allah, make light in my hearing, light in my sight, light in my heart, light on my right, light on my left, light in front of me, light behind me, light above me, light below me, and make light for me."
