Majma al-Zawaid 3661 — The prayer of our master the Messenger of Allah
وَعَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ غَزِيَّةَ صَاحِبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : يَحْسَبُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِذَا قَامَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ يُصَلِّي حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ تَهَجَّدَ ، إِنَّمَا التَّهَجُّدُ : الْمَرْءُ يُصَلِّي الصَّلَاةَ بَعْدَ رَقْدَةٍ ثُمَّ الصَّلَاةَ بَعْدَ رَقْدَةٍ وَتِلْكَ كَانَتْ صَلَاةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَلَهُ إِسْنَادٌ صَحِيحٌ رِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .

Sayyiduna al-Hajjaj bin Ghaziyyah (may Allah be pleased with him), who was a Companion of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), says: You people think that when someone keeps offering voluntary prayers at night and prays continuously until morning, he has offered tahajjud. Rather, the one who offers tahajjud is the one who prays after sleeping for a while, and then prays again after sleeping for a while. This is how the prayer of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to be.
