Shalat Malam Rasulullah

Dari Ibnu Abbas r.a.: Suatu kali aku menginap di rumah (bibiku) Maimunna (r.a. istri Rasulullah) ketika Rasulullah sedang bersamanya, untuk melihat bagaimana shalat malam Rasulullah. Rasulullah berbincang dengan istrinya sebentar dan kemudian tidur. Ketika tiba waktu sepertiga akhir malam, Rasulullah bangun dan melihat ke arah langit dan menyebutkan sebuah ayat:

"Sesungguhnya dalam penciptaan langit dan bumi (seperti yang terdapat dalam firman-Nya) terdapat tanda-tanda bagi orang-orang yang berakal." (Qs. 3:190)

Kemudian beliau bangkit dan berwudhu, menyikat giginya dan menunaikan sebelas rakaat. Kemudian Bilal mengumandangkan adzan untuk shalat dan sesudah itu Rasulullah melakukan shalat sunnah dua rakaat kemudian pergi untuk mengimami kaum muslimin shalat Fajar.

Narrated Ibnu Abbas r.a.: Once I stayed overnight at the house of (my aunt) Maimunna (r.a. the wife of the Prophet) while the Prophet was with her, to see how was the night Salat (prayer) of Allah's Messenger. Allah's Messenger talked to his wife for a while and then slept. When it was the last third of the night (or part of it), the Prophet got up and looked towards the sky and recited the Verse:

"Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the earth (up to His Statement) there are indeed signs for the men of understanding." (V. 3:190)

Then he got up and performed the ablution, brushed his teeth and offered eleven Rak'a. Then Bilal pronounced the Adhan for As-Salat whereupon the Prophet offered a two Rak'a (Sunna) prayer and went out to lead the people in Fajr (morning compulsory congregational) Salat (prayer).
