Musnad of Aishah
Musnad Abi Ya'la 4722 — she said: I never saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ : مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يُصَلِّي شَيْئًا مِنْ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ جَالِسًا ، حَتَّى إِذَا دَخَلَ فِي السِّنِّ صَلَّى فَقَرَأَ ، فَإِذَا بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ السُّورَةِ ثَلَاثُونَ آيَةً أَوْ أَرْبَعُونَ آيَةً ، قَامَ فَقَرَأَ ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: "I never saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) offer any part of the night prayer (tahajjud) sitting, until, when he (peace and blessings be upon him) reached old age, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would pray sitting and recite; then, when thirty or forty verses of the surah remained, he (peace and blessings be upon him) would stand up and recite the rest, and then bow (ruku')."
