“I did not see the Messenger of Allah ﷺ offer any of the night prayers in any way other than standing, until he became old. Then he started to pray sitting down until, when there were thirty or forty Verses left of his recitation, he would stand up and recite them, and prostrate.”  

مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي فِي شَىْءٍ مِنْ صَلاَةِ اللَّيْلِ إِلاَّ قَائِمًا حَتَّى دَخَلَ فِي السِّنِّ فَجَعَلَ يُصَلِّي جَالِسًا حَتَّى إِذَا بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ قِرَاءَتِهِ أَرْبَعُونَ آيَةً أَوْ ثَلاَثُونَ آيَةً قَامَ فَقَرَأَهَا وَسَجَدَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to not recite anything from the night prayer while sitting until he reached an older age. And when there remained thirty or forty verses, he would stand and recite them, then he would prostrate.  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَا يَقْرَأُ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ جَالِسًا حَتَّى دَخَلَ فِي السِّنِّ وَكَانَ إِذَا بَقِيَتْ عَلَيْهِ ثَلَاثُونَ آيَةً أَوْ أَرْبَعُونَ قَامَ فَقَرَأَهَا ثُمَّ سَجَدَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray while sitting after he reached old age, until the remaining verses of the Surah were thirty or forty, then he would stand and recite, then he would perform a bow.  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي جَالِسًا بَعْدَمَا دَخَلَ فِي السِّنِّ حَتَّى إِذَا بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ السُّورَةِ ثَلَاثُونَ أَوْ أَرْبَعُونَ آيَةً قَامَ فَقَرَأَ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to pray while sitting after he reached old age. When there were 30 verses remaining from the surah, he would stand up and recite them, then he would perform the rukoo' (bowing).  

«كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ بَعْدَمَا دَخَلَ فِي السِّنِّ وَكَانَ إِذَا بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ السُّورَةِ ثَلَاثُونَ آيَةً قَامَ فَقَرَأَهَا ثُمَّ رَكَعَ»  

“I did not see the Messenger of Allah ﷺ offer any of the night prayers in any way other than standing, until he became old. Then he started to pray sitting down until, when there were thirty or forty Verses left of his recitation, he would stand up and recite them, and prostrate.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1227)   

«مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي شَيْئًا مِنْ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ جَالِسًا حَتَّى دَخَلَ فِي السِّنِّ فَجَعَلَ يَقْرَأُ فَإِذَا بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ السُّورَةِ ثَلَاثُونَ آيَةً أَوْ أَرْبَعُونَ آيَةً قَامَ فَقَرَأَ ثُمَّ رَكَعَ»  

"I never saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray sitting down until he grew old. Then he would pray sitting down and when there were thirty or forty verses left, he would stand up and recite them, then bow." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1649)   

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَا يَقْرَأُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ جَالِسًا حَتَّى دَخَلَ فِي السِّنِّ فَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ فَإِذَا بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ السُّورَةِ ثَلَاثُونَ آيَةً أَوْ أَرْبَعُونَ آيَةً قَامَ فَقَرَأَهَا ثُمَّ رَكَعَ»
