Musnad Abi Ya'la 3755 — one night the Prophet ﷺ was praying
حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا خَالِدٌ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ يُصَلِّي فِي حُجْرَتِهِ ، فَجَاءَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَصَلَّوْا بِصَلَاتِهِ ، قَالَ : فَدَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَعَادَ مِرَارًا ، كُلُّ ذَلِكَ يُصَلِّي ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ ، قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، صَلَّيْنَا مَعَكَ ، وَنَحْنُ نُحِبُّ أَنْ تَمُدَّ فِي صَلَاتِكَ ، قَالَ : قَدْ عَلِمْتُ بِمَكَانِكُمْ ، وَعَمْدًا فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that one night the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was praying in his apartment when some of his Companions came and began to pray following him. Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: He (peace and blessings be upon him) went inside the house, then came out, and did so several times, while he (peace and blessings be upon him) remained in prayer. When morning came, the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! We prayed with you, and we wished that you had prolonged the prayer further." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I knew that you were there, and I did all of that deliberately."
