Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I prayed one night with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace be upon him) stood for a very long time until I intended to do something bad. He was asked: What bad did you intend? He replied: I intended to sit down and leave the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) standing.
