حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ الرَّازِيُّ عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ وَالْعَلاءِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ قَالَ أَتَيْنَا عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَقُلْنَا يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَلا
أَتَيْنَا عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، فَقُلْنَا: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، أَلَا تُحَدِّثُنَا عَنْ صَلَاةِ [رَسُولِ اللهِ] ﷺ تَطَوُّعَهُ ؟ فَقَالَ: وَأَيُّكُمْ يُطِيقُهُ ؟ قَالُوا: نَأْخُذُ مِنْهُ مَا أَطَقْنَا، قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي مِنَ النَّهَارِ سِتَّ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً سِوَى الْمَكْتُوبَةِ

We came to ʿAli bin Abi Talib ؓ and said: O Ameer al-Muʿmineen, why donʿt you tell us about the voluntary prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? He said: Who among you can do that? They said: We will take what we can do. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray sixteen rakʿahs during the day apart from the Prescribed prayers.
