[Machine] I was at the house of Maymuna when the Prophet ﷺ stood up to pray at night. I stood up with him on his left side, and he took my hand and placed me on his right side. Then he prayed thirteen units of prayer, and I guessed the length of his standing in each unit, O you (Prophet) wrapped in garments.

I spent a night with my maternal aunt Maymunah. The Prophet ﷺ got up to pray at night. He prayed thirteen rak'ahs including two rak'ahs of the dawn prayer. I guessed that he stood in every rak'ah as long as one could recite Surah al-Muzzammil (73).

[Machine] I was at the house of Maymuna, and the Prophet ﷺ stood up to pray at night. I joined him on his left side, and he held my hand, placing me on his right. Then he prayed thirteen rak'ahs, and I estimated the length of his standing in each rak'ah, saying, "O you, wrapped in garments!"

[Machine] I was at my aunt Maymuna's house. The Prophet ﷺ got up to pray at night, so I stood to his left. He took my hand and placed me on his right. Then he prayed thirteen units of prayer. I observed his standing in each unit just as O' Enveloped One.

[Machine] I stayed at the house of Maymuna, so the Prophet ﷺ got up to pray in the night. I stood on his left side and he held my hand and placed me on his right. Then he prayed thirteen rak'ahs, and I estimated the amount of time he stood in each rak'ah. In each rak'ah he recited, "O you wrapped in garments" [Surah Al-Muzzammil, verse 1].
