ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي، يَعْنِي ابْنَ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ عُرْوَةُ: قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ
خَرَجَ مِنْ جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ فَصَلَّى فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَصَلَّى رِجَالٌ بِصَلَاتِهِ، فَأَصْبَحَ نَاسٌ يَتَحَدَّثُونَ بِذَلِكَ، فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ اللَّيْلَةُ الثَّالِثَةُ كَثُرَ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ، فَخَرَجَ فَصَلَّى، فَصَلَّوْا بِصَلَاتِهِ، فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ اللَّيْلَةُ الرَّابِعَةُ، عَجَزَ الْمَسْجِدُ عَنْ أَهْلِهِ، فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ إِلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فَطَفِقَ رِجَالٌ مِنْهُمْ يُنَادُونَ: الصَّلَاةَ، فَكَمَنَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى خَرَجَ لِصَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ، فَلَمَّا قَضَى صَلَاةَ الْفَجْرِ، قَامَ فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ بِوَجْهِهِ، فَتَشَهَّدَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَمَّا بَعْدُ؛ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَخْفَ عَلَيَّ شَأْنُكُمْ، وَلَكِنِّي خَشِيتُ أَنْ تُفْرَضَ عَلَيْكُمْ صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ فَتَعْجِزُوا عَنْهَا

✧ He came out in the depth of the night and prayed in the mosque, and some men prayed following his prayer. In the morning people talked about that. When it was the third night, the people of the mosque increased in number, and he came out and prayed, and they prayed following his prayer. When it was the fourth night, the mosque could not accommodate its people, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not come out to them. Some men among them began calling out: 'The prayer!' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained concealed until he came out for the Fajr prayer. When he finished the Fajr prayer, he stood up and turned his face toward them, then he recited the tashahhud, praised Allah and extolled Him, then said: 'To proceed: your affair has not been hidden from me, but I feared that the night prayer would be made obligatory upon you, and you would be unable to perform it.'
