Chapter 5 · Prayer (Kitab Al-Salat): Voluntary Prayersحَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ يَعْنِي الْمَرْوَزِيَّ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ الْحَنَفِيِّ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ أَوَّلُ الْمُزَّمِّلِ كَانُوا يَقُومُونَ نَحْوًا مِنْ قِيَامِهِمْ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ حَتَّى نَزَلَ آخِرُهَا، وَكَانَ بَيْنَ أَوَّلِهَا وَآخِرِهَا سَنَةٌ.
