"The Prophet ﷺ delayed the prayer one night until most of the night had passed and the people in the Masjid had gone home to sleep, then he went out and prayed, and said: 'This is indeed its (prayer) time, were it not that I would impose too much difficulty on my Ummah.'"

أَعْتَمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ عَامَّةُ اللَّيْلِ وَحَتَّى نَامَ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَصَلَّى وَقَالَ إِنَّهُ لَوَقْتُهَا لَوْلاَ أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي

"The Prophet ﷺ delayed the prayer one night until most of the night had passed and the people in the Masjid had gone home to sleep, then he went out and prayed, and said: 'This is indeed its (prayer) time, were it not that I would impose too much difficulty on my Ummah.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 536)

أَعْتَمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ عَامَّةُاللَّيْلِ وَحَتَّى نَامَ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ وَقَالَ ابْنُ بَكْرٍ رَقَدَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَصَلَّى فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ لَوَقْتُهَا لَوْلَا أَنْ يَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي وَقَالَ ابْنُ بَكْرٍ أَنْ أَشُقَّ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ secluded himself one night until most of the night had passed and the people of the mosque had gone to sleep. Then he went out and prayed it and said, "It is its time, but I did not want to make it difficult for my Ummah."

أَعْتَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ عَامَّةُ اللَّيْلِ وَرَقَدَ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ فَخَرَجَ فَصَلَّاهَا فَقَالَ «إِنَّهُ لَوَقْتُهَا لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي»

"The Prophet ﷺ delayed the prayer one night until most of the night had passed and the people in the Masjid had gone home to sleep, then he went out and prayed, and said: 'This is indeed its (prayer) time, were it not that I would impose too much difficulty on my Ummah.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 536)

أَعْتَمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَيْلَةً حَتَّى ذَهَبَ عَامَّةُ اللَّيْلِ وَحَتَّى نَامَ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَصَلَّى ثُمَّ قَالَ «إِنَّهُ لَوَقْتُهَا لَوْلَا أَنْ يَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي»
