Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 7312 — I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on one

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمَدِينِيِّ، ثنا أَبِي، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ الْمُعَطَّلِ قَالَ: «رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْ فِي بَعْضِ أَسْفَارِهِ، فَصَلَّى الْعِشَاءَ، ثُمَّ نَامَ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ مَعَ انْتِصَافِ اللَّيْلِ قَامَ، فَتَلَا هَؤُلَاءِ الْآيَاتِ مِنْ آخِرِ سُورَةِ آلِ عِمْرَانَ حَتَّى خَتَمَ السُّورَةَ، ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأَ وَتَسَوَّكَ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ، لَا أَدْرِي أَقِيَامُهُ أَوْ رُكُوعُهُ أَوْ سُجُودُهُ أَطْوَلُ» ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «ثُمَّ اسْتَيْقَظَ فَقَرَأَ الْآيَاتِ أَيْضًا، ثُمَّ تَسَوَّكَ وَتَوَضَّأَ، ثُمَّ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى مَا صَلَّى مِثْلَ الْأَوَّلِ، ثُمَّ لَمْ يَزَلْ يُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ يَنَامُ، ثُمَّ يَسْتَيْقِظُ كَمَا فَعَلَ فِي الْمَرَّةِ الْأُولَى حَتَّى صَلَّى إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً»
Sayyiduna Safwan bin al-Mu'attal (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on one of his journeys. He (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed Isha, then slept, until when it was midnight he got up and recited the last verses of Surah Al Imran to the end. Then he performed ablution and used the tooth-stick (miswak), then prayed two rak'ahs. I do not know whether his (peace and blessings be upon him) standing, his bowing or his prostration was longer. Then he said: Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) woke up and recited the same verses again, then used the tooth-stick and performed ablution, then did as before, then prayed as much as he had prayed the first time. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) continued in this way, praying two rak'ahs at a time, sleeping, then waking up, as he had done the first time, until he had prayed eleven rak'ahs.
