When the opening verses of Surah Al-muzammil was revealed, the Companions would pray as long as they would pray during Ramadan until its last verses were revealed. The period between the revelation of its opening and the last verses was one year. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1305)   

البيهقي:٤٦٤٠أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ وَأَبُو مُحَمَّدِ بْنُ أَبِي حَامِدٍ الْمُقْرِئُ قَالَا ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ هُوَ الْأَصَمُّ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَفَّانَ الْعَامِرِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ يَعْنِي الْحَنَفِيَّ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ يَقُولُ لَمَّا نَزَلَ أَوَّلُ الْمُزَّمِّلِ كَانُوا يَقُومُونَ نَحْوًا مِنْ قِيَامِهِمْ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ حَتَّى نَزَلَ آخِرُهَا فَكَانَ بَيْنَ أَوَّلِهَا وَآخِرِهَا قَرِيبٌ مِنْ سَنَةٍ
