[Machine] I stayed at my aunt Maymuna bint al-Harith, the wife of the Prophet Muhammad. I saw him get up in the middle of the night and fulfill his needs. He then went to the Qirbah (a water container) and untied its rope. He performed ablution (wudu) between the two ablutions, and then went back to his bed and slept. He then went to the Qirbah again, untied the rope, and performed ablution. He prayed and I got up and did as he did. I approached him from his left, but he turned and made room for me on his right. He prayed either eleven or thirteen units (rak'ahs), and then fell asleep until he snored. I heard him say in his prostration, "O Allah, place light in my heart, light in my hearing, light in my vision, light behind me, light in front of me, light on my right, light on my left, light above me, light below me, and grant me the greatest light". He then slept until he snored, and Bilal came to him and called him for prayer, so he got up.
بِتُّ عِنْدَ خَالَتِي مَيْمُونَةَ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَرَأَيْتُهُ قَامَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ قَوْمَةً فَقَضَى حَاجَتَهُ ثُمَّ أَتَى الْقِرْبَةَ فَحَلَّ شِنَاقَهَا فَتَوَضَّأَ وُضُوءًا بَيْنَ الْوُضُوءَيْنِ ثُمَّ آوَى إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ فَنَامَ ثُمَّ أَتَى الْقِرْبَةَ فَحَلَّ شِنَاقَهَا فَتَوَضَّأَ وُضُوءًا هُوَ الْوُضُوءُ فَصَلَّى فَقُمْتُ فَصَنَعْتُ كَمَا صَنَعَ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ فَقُمْتُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ فَلَفِتَني فَأَقَامَنِي عَنْ يَمِينِهِ فَصَلَّى إِمَّا إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً وَإِمَّا ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً ثُمَّ نَامَ حَتَّى نَفَخَ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ «اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْ فِي قَلْبِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ فِي سَمْعِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ فِي بَصَرِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ مِنْ خَلْفِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ مِنْ بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ عَنْ يَمِينِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ عَنْ يَسَارِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ مِنْ فَوْقِي نُورًا وَاجْعَلْ مِنْ تَحْتِي نُورًا وَأَعْظِمْ لِي نُورًا» ثُمَّ نَامَ حَتَّى نَفَخَ فَأَتَاهُ بِلَالٌ فَآذَنَهُ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَخَرَجَ
