[Machine] He heard Nu'man ibn Bashir saying on the pulpit of Hims, "We stood with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the twenty-third night of Ramadan until the first third of the night, then we stood with him on the twenty-fifth night until midnight, then he stood with us on the twenty-seventh night until we thought we would not be able to reach the pre-dawn meal. He said, 'We used to call the pre-dawn meal the meal of halaqah (cutting off)'. As for us, we would say, 'The seventh night, the twenty-seventh night', and you would say, 'The twenty-third night, the seventh night'. So which of us is correct, us or you?"  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ بَشِيرٍ يَقُولُ عَلَى مِنْبَرِ حِمْصَ قُمْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْلَةَ ثَلَاثٍ وَعِشْرِينَ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ إِلَى ثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ الْأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ قُمْنَا مَعَهُ لَيْلَةَ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ إِلَى نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ ثُمَّ قَامَ بِنَا لَيْلَةَ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ حَتَّى ظَنَنَّا أَنْ لَا نُدْرِكَ الْفَلَاحَ قَالَ وَكُنَّا نَدْعُو السُّحُورَ الْفَلَاحَ فَأَمَّا نَحْنُ فَنَقُولُ لَيْلَةُ السَّابِعَةِ لَيْلَةُ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ وَأَنْتُمْ تَقُولُونَ لَيْلَةُ ثَلَاثٍ وَعِشْرِينَ السَّابِعَةُ فَمَنْ أَصَوْبُ نَحْنُ أَوْ أَنْتُمْ  

[Machine] We accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for thirty nights in the month of Ramadan. The first night, we stood with him until one-third of the night, then he said, "I do not think that you seek anything other than what is behind you." Then we stood with him for twenty-five nights until half of the night, then he said, "I do not think that you seek anything other than what is behind you." Then we stood with him for twenty-seven nights until morning, and he remained silent.  

قُمْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْلَةَ ثَلَاثٍ وَعِشْرِينَ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ إِلَى ثُلُثِ اللَّيْلِ الْأَوَّلِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَا أَحْسَبُ مَا تَطْلُبُونَ إِلَّا وَرَاءَكُمْ ثُمَّ قُمْنَا مَعَهُ لَيْلَةَ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ إِلَى نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَا أُحْسَبُ مَا تَطْلُبُونَ إِلَّا وَرَاءَكُمْ فَقُمْنَا مَعَهُ لَيْلَةَ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ حَتَّى أَصْبَحَ وَسَكَتَ  

"I heard An-Nu'man bin Bashir on the minbar in Hims saying: "We prayed Qiyam with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during Ramadan on the night of the twenty-third until one-third of the night had passed, then we prayed Qiyam with him on the night of the twenty-fifth until one-half of the night had passed, then we prayed Qiyam with him on the night of the twenty-seventh until we thought that we would miss Al-Falah- that is what they used to call suhur." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1606)
