حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ أَنَا سُفْيَانُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ حُسَيْنٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَصَلَّى فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فِي رَمَضَانَ وَصَلَّى خَلْفَهُ نَاسٌ بِصَلَاتِهِ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ اللَّيْلَةَ الثَّانِيَةَ فَكَانُوا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ كَثُرُوا فِي اللَّيْلَةِ الثَّالِثَةِ فَلَمَّا كَانَتْ اللَّيْلَةُ الرَّابِعَةُ غَصَّ الْمَسْجِدُ بِأَهْلِهِ فَلَمْ يَنْزِلْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالُوا فِي ذَلِكَ مَا شَأْنُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَنْزِلْ فَسَمِعَ مَقَالَتَهُمْ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ قَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي قَدْ سَمِعْتُ مَقَالَتَكُمْ وَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي أَنْ أَنْزِلَ إِلَيْكُمْ إِلَّا مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يُفْتَرَضَ عَلَيْكُمْ قِيَامُ هَذَا الشَّهْرِ.

Yazid told us: Sufyan - meaning ibn Husayn - informed us, from al-Zuhri, from Urwah, from Aisha, she said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, came down and prayed in the mosque one night in Ramadan, and people prayed behind him following his prayer. Then he came down the second night, and they were more numerous than that. Then they increased in number on the third night. Then when it was the fourth night, the mosque was packed with its people, but the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, did not come down. So they spoke about that, saying, "What is the matter with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, that he did not come down?" He heard their talk, and when morning came, he said, "O people, I have indeed heard your talk, and nothing prevented me from coming down to you except the fear that the standing prayer of this month would be made obligatory upon you."
