Ibn Shihaab narrated that Humaid bin Abdur-Rahman bin Awf (رضي الله تعالى عنه) told me that a man from among the companions of the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) said, ‘when I was on a journey with the Apostle of Allah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم), by Allah (جَلَّ ذُو), I wanted to watch the prayer of the Apostle of Allah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) and see what he does. When he prayed Isha, he lay down for a long time. Then he woke up and looked toward the horizon and said, “Our Lord! You have not created (all) this without purpose” until he reached, “for You never break (Your) Promise”. Then the Apostle of Allah (صلى هللا عليه و آله وسلم) reached across his bed and took a siwak from it, then he poured water from a vessel and cleaned his teeth. Then he stood and prayed. He has prayed for as long as he had slept. Then he lay down and slept as long as he prayed. Then he woke up and did the same as he had done the first time and said the same as he had said. The Apostle of Allah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) did that three times before Fajr’.
