Narrated Fadl Bin Abbas: I spent a night with the Prophet ﷺ to see how he prayed. He got up; performed ablution and prayed two rakahs. His standing was like his bowing i.e. equal in duration ; and his bowing was like his prostration equal in length. Then he slept. Afterwards he awoke; performed ablution; and used tooth-stick. He then recited five verses from Surah AlImran : In the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of night and day. He went on doing so till he prayed ten rakahs. He then stood up and prayed one rakah observing witr with it. In the meantime the muadhdhin called to prayer. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up after the muadhdhin had kept silent. He prayed two light rakahs and remained sitting till he offered the dawn prayer.Abu Dawud said: A part of the tradition transmitted by Ibn Bashshar remained hidden from me.
