ʿAbdullah bin ʿAbbas said that he had passed a night in the house of Maimuna the mother of the faithful believers , who was his aunt. He said, "I slept across the bed, and Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with his wife slept lengthwise. Messenger of Allah ﷺ slept till midnight or slightly before or after it. Then Allah's Apostle woke up, sat, and removed the traces of sleep by rubbing his hands over his face. Then he recited the last ten verses of Surat-Al ʿImran (2). Then he went towards a hanging leather watercontainer and performed a perfect ablution and then stood up for prayer." ʿAbdullah bin ʿAbbas added, "I got up and did the same as Messenger of Allah ﷺ had done and then went and stood by his side. Messenger of Allah ﷺ then put his right hand over my head and caught my right ear and twisted it. He offered two rakʿat, then two rakʿat, then two rakʿat, then two rakʿat, then two rakʿat, then two rakʿat and then offered one rakʿa witr. Then he lay down till the Mu'adh-dhin came and then he prayed two light rakʿat and went out and offered the early morning (Fajr) prayer."
