Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that he stayed the night at the house of his maternal aunt Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her). He said: Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her) lay down across the width of the pillow, while the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his ((peace and blessings be upon him)) wife lay along its length. the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) slept until the middle of the night, or a little before it or a little after it, then woke up, sat up and wiped the traces of sleep from his face with both his hands, then recited the last ten verses of Surah Al Imran. Then he went to a hanging waterskin, performed ablution from it, and performed it very well, then stood for prayer. I too did just as he ((peace and blessings be upon him)) had done, then went and stood at his ((peace and blessings be upon him)) side. He ((peace and blessings be upon him)) placed his hand on my head, took hold of my ear and twisted it, then prayed two rak'ahs at a time, four times, then prayed witr and lay down, until the mu'adhdhin came. Then he ((peace and blessings be upon him)) got up and prayed two light rak'ahs, then prayed the morning (Fajr) prayer.
