Narrated Kuraib Maula Ibn Abbas:
Abdullah Ibn Abbas said that he had passed a night in the house of Maimuna the mother of the faithful belivers, who was his aunt. He said, "I slept across the bed, and Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) along with his wife slept lengthwise. Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) slept till midnight or slightly before or after it. Then Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) woke up, sat, and removed the traces of sleep by rubbing his hands over his face. Then he recited the last ten verses of Surat-al-Imran. Then he went towards a hanging leather water container and performed a perfect ablution and then stood up for prayer."
Abdullah Ibn Abbas added, "I got up and did the same as Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) had done and then went and stood by his side. Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) then put his right hand over my head and caught my right ear and twisted it. He offered two Rakat, then two Rakat, then two Rakat, then two Rakat, then two Rakat, then two Rakat and then offered one Raka Witr. Then he lay down till the Muadh-dhin came and then he prayed two light Rakat and went out and offered the early morning (fajr) prayer."
