Chapter 7 · The Book of Prayer - Travellersحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ وَهُو ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: بِتُّ فِي بَيْتِ خَالَتِي مَيْمُونَةَ فَبَقَيْتُ كَيْفَ يُصَلِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: فَقَامَ فَبَالَ، ثُمَّ غَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ وَكَفَّيْهِ، ثُمَّ نَامَ، ثُمَّ قَامَ إِلَى الْقِرْبَةِ فَأَطْلَقَ شِنَاقَهَا، ثُمَّ صَبَّ فِي الْجَفْنَةِ، أَوِ الْقَصْعَةِ، فَأَكَبَّهُ بِيَدِهِ عَلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأَ وُضُوءًا حَسَنًا بَيْنَ الْوُضُوءَيْنِ، ثُمَّ قَامَ يُصَلِّي، فَجِئْتُ فَقُمْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ، فَقُمْتُ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ، قَالَ: فَأَخَذَنِي فَأَقَامَنِي عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، فَتَكَامَلَتْ صَلَاةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً، ثُمَّ نَامَ حَتَّى نَفَخَ وَكُنَّا نَعْرِفُهُ إِذَا نَامَ بِنَفْخِهِ، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَصَلَّى، فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ، أَوْ فِي سُجُودِهِ: «اللهُمَّ اجْعَلْ فِي قَلْبِي نُورًا، وَفِي سَمْعِي نُورًا، وَفِي بَصَرِي نُورًا، وَعَنْ يَمِينِي نُورًا، وَعَنْ شِمَالِي نُورًا، وَأَمَامِي نُورًا، وَخَلْفِي نُورًا، وَفَوْقِي نُورًا، وَتَحْتِي نُورًا، وَاجْعَلْ لِي نُورًا»، أَوْ قَالَ: «وَاجْعَلْنِي نُورًا».

I spent the night in the house of my mother's sister, Maimuna, and observed how the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) prayed (at night). He got up and relieved himself. He then washed his face and hands and then went to sleep. He again got up and went near the water-skin and loosened its straps and then poured some water in a bowl and inclined it with his hands (towards himself). He then performed a good ablution between the two extremes and then stood up to pray. I also came and stood by his left side. He took hold of me and made me stand on his right side. It was in thirteen rak`ahs that the (night) prayer of the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was completed. He then slept till he began to snore, and we knew that he had gone to sleep by his snoring. He then went out (for the dawn prayer), and said while praying or prostrating himself: O Allah! place light in my heart, light in my hearing, light in my sight, light on my right, light on my left, light in front of me, light behind me, light above me, light below me, make light for me, or he said: Make me light.
