Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ وَالَّذِي تَوَفَّى نَفْسَهُ تَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا تُوُفِّيَ حَتَّى كَانَتْ أَكْثَرُ صَلَاتِهِ قَاعِدًا إِلَّا الْمَكْتُوبَةَ وَكَانَ أَعْجَبُ الْعَمَلِ إِلَيْهِ الَّذِي يَدُومُ عَلَيْهِ الْعَبْدُ وَإِنْ كَانَ يَسِيرًا.
English Translation
Narrated to us by Abd al-Razzaq, who said: Sufyan narrated to us, from Abu Ishaq, from Abu Salamah ibn Abd al-Rahman, from Umm Salamah, who said: "By the One who took his soul" - meaning the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) - "he did not pass away until most of his prayer was performed sitting, except the obligatory prayer, and the deed most beloved to him was that which a servant maintained continuously, even if it was little."
