حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يُصَلِّي بِاللَّيْلِ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً يُوتِرُ مِنْهَا بِوَاحِدَةٍ فَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنْهَا اضْطَجَعَ عَلَى شِقِّهِ الأَيْمَنِ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَهُ الْمُؤَذِّنُ فَيُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ خَفِيفَتَيْنِ .

ইয়াহইয়া ইবনু ইয়াহইয়া (রহঃ) ..... আশিয়াহ (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম রাতের বেলা এগার রাক'আত সালাত আদায় করতেন। তার মধ্যে এক রাকাআত বিতর আদায় করতেন। সালাত শেষ করে তিনি ডান পাশে ফিরে শুতেন। অতঃপর ভোরে মুয়াযযিন আসলে তিনি (উঠে) সংক্ষিপ্তভাবে দু' রাকাআত সালাত আদায় করতেন। (ইসলামী ফাউন্ডেশন ১৫৮৭, ইসলামীক সেন্টার)
