Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ وَأَبُو النَّضْرِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي مَا بَيْنَ صَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ الْآخِرَةِ إِلَى الْفَجْرِ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً يُسَلِّمُ فِي كُلِّ اثْنَيْنِ وَيُوتِرُ بِوَاحِدَةٍ وَيَسْجُدُ فِي سُبْحَتِهِ بِقَدْرِ مَا يَقْرَأُ أَحَدُكُمْ بِخَمْسِينَ آيَةً قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرْفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَإِذَا سَكَتَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ بِالْأُولَى مِنْ أَذَانِهِ قَامَ فَرَكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ خَفِيفَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ اضْطَجَعَ عَلَى شِقِّهِ الْأَيْمَنِ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُ الْمُؤَذِّنُ فَيَخْرُجَ مَعَهُ.
English Translation
Husayn ibn Muhammad narrated to us, he said: Ibn Abi Dhi'b informed us, and Abu al-Nadr, from Ibn Abi Dhi'b, from al-Zuhri, from Urwah, from Aishah, who said: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to pray eleven rak'ahs between the final night prayer and dawn, giving the closing salutation after every two, and finishing with one; and he would prostrate during his prayer for a time equal to one of you reciting fifty verses before he raised his head. When the caller to prayer fell silent after the first part of his call, he would get up and pray two light rak'ahs, then lie down on his right side until the caller to prayer came to him, and he would go out with him.
