The time of the Isha prayer until half of the night
أَخَّرَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم صَلاَةَ الْعِشَاءِ إِلَى نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى ثُمَّ قَالَ " قَدْ صَلَّى النَّاسُ وَنَامُوا، أَمَا إِنَّكُمْ فِي صَلاَةٍ مَا انْتَظَرْتُمُوهَا ". كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى وَبِيصِ خَاتَمِهِ لَيْلَتَئِذٍ.

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ الْمُحَارِبِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الطَّوِيلِ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ
Translation
Anas ibn Malik reported: The Prophet ﷺ delayed the Isha prayer until half of the night, then he prayed and said, “The people have prayed and slept. As for you, you are in prayer as long as you have been waiting for it.” … It is as if I am looking at the glitter of his ring that night.
Translator’s note: The part after “…” is an addition from the transmission of Ibn Abi Maryam via Humayd from Anas.
