Sahih Ibn Hibban 2544

Translation

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out in the middle of the night and prayed in the mosque, and some men prayed by his prayer. In the morning, the people talked about that, and more gathered than them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out the second night and prayed, and they prayed by his prayer. In the morning, the people reminded one another of that, and the people of the mosque increased on the third night. He came out and prayed with them, and they prayed by his prayer. When it was the fourth night, the mosque could not hold its people, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not come out. Some men began saying, "The prayer," but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not come out to them until he came out for the dawn prayer. When he finished the dawn prayer, he turned to the people, then pronounced the testimony of faith and said: "To proceed: your affair was not hidden from me last night, and I feared that the night prayer would be made obligatory upon you and you would be unable to do it."
