bayhaqi:4508Abū ʿAlī al-Rūdhbārī > Abū Bakr b. Dāsah > Abū Dāwud > Muḥammad b. Rāfiʿ > Abū al-Ḥusayn Zayd b. al-Ḥubāb al-ʿUklī > Mālik b. Mighwal > Muqātil b. Bashīr al-ʿIjlī > Shurayḥ b. Hānī > ʿĀʾishah > Saʾaltuhā

Shurayh ibn Hani said: I asked Aisha about the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ never offered the night prayer and thereafter came to me but he offered four or six rak'ahs of prayer. One night the rain fell, so we spread a piece of leather (for his prayer), and now I see as if there is a hole in it from which the water is flowing. I never saw him protecting his clothes from the earth (as he did on that occasion). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1303)   

البيهقي:٤٥٠٨أنبأ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ ثنا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ الْعُكْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكُ بْنُ مِغْوَلٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُقَاتِلُ بْنُ بَشِيرٍ الْعِجْلِيُّ عَنْ شُرَيْحِ بْنِ هَانِي عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ قَالَ سَأَلْتُهَا عَنْ

صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ مَا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْعِشَاءَ قَطُّ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيَّ إِلَّا صَلَّى أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ أَوْ سِتَّ رَكَعَاتٍ وَلَقَدْ مُطِرْنَا مَرَّةً بِاللَّيْلِ فَطَرَحْنَا لَهُ نِطَعًا فَكَأَنَّنِي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى ثُقْبٍ فِيهِ يَنْبُعُ الْمَاءُ مِنْهُ وَمَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُتَّقِيًا الْأَرْضَ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ ثِيَابِهِ قَطُّ
