A'isha reported: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) came out during the night and observed prayer in the mosque and some of the people prayed along with him. When it was morning the people talked about this and so a large number of people gathered there. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) went out for the second night, and they (the people) prayed along with him. When it was morning the people began to talk about it. So the mosque thronged with people on the third night. He (the Holy Prophet) came out and they prayed along with him. When it was the fourth night, the mosque was filled to its utmost capacity but the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) did not come out. Some persons among then cried: Prayer. But the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) did not come to them till he came out for the morning prayer. When he had completed the morning prayer, he turned his face to the people and recited Tashahhud (I bear testi- mony that there is no god but Allah and I bear testimony that Muhammad is His Messen- ger) and then said: Your affair was not hidden from me in the night, but I was afraid that (my observing prayer continuously) might make the night prayer obligatory for you and you might be unable to perform it.
و حَدَّثَنِي حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرَجَ مِنْ جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ فَصَلَّى فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَصَلَّى رِجَالٌ بِصَلَاتِهِ فَأَصْبَحَ النَّاسُ يَتَحَدَّثُونَ بِذَلِكَ فَاجْتَمَعَ أَكْثَرُ مِنْهُمْ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي اللَّيْلَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ فَصَلَّوْا بِصَلَاتِهِ فَأَصْبَحَ النَّاسُ يَذْكُرُونَ ذَلِكَ فَكَثُرَ أَهْلُ الْمَسْجِدِ مِنْ اللَّيْلَةِ الثَّالِثَةِ فَخَرَجَ فَصَلَّوْا بِصَلَاتِهِ فَلَمَّا كَانَتْ اللَّيْلَةُ الرَّابِعَةُ عَجَزَ الْمَسْجِدُ عَنْ أَهْلِهِ فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ إِلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَطَفِقَ رِجَالٌ مِنْهُمْ يَقُولُونَ الصَّلَاةَ فَلَمْ يَخْرُجْ إِلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى خَرَجَ لِصَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ فَلَمَّا قَضَى الْفَجْرَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ ثُمَّ تَشَهَّدَ فَقَالَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَخْفَ عَلَيَّ شَأْنُكُمْ اللَّيْلَةَ وَلَكِنِّي خَشِيتُ أَنْ تُفْرَضَ عَلَيْكُمْ صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ فَتَعْجِزُوا عَنْهَا
  یونس بن یزید نے ابن شہاب سے خبر دی ، انھوں نے کہا : مجھے عروہ بن زبیر نے بتایا کہ حضرت عائشہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا نے انھیں بتایا کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم رات کے وسط میں ( گھر سے ) نکلے اور مسجد میں نماز پڑھی ، کچھ لوگوں نے ( بھی ) آپ کی نماز کے ساتھ نماز ادا کی ، صبح کو لوگوں نے اس بارے میں بات چیت کی ، چنانچہ ( دوسری رات ) لوگ پہلے سے زیادہ جمع ہوگئے ، رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم د وسری رات بھی باہر تشریف لائے اور لوگوں نے آپ کی نماز کے ساتھ ( اقتداء میں ) نماز پڑھی ، صبح اس کا تذکرہ کرتے رہے ، تیسری رات مسجد میں آنے والے اور زیادہ ہوگئے آپ باہر تشریف لائے اور لوگوں نے آپ کی نماز کے ساتھ نماز پڑھی ، جب چوتھی رات ہوئی تو مسجد نمازیوں کے لئے تنگ ہوگئی ، اور رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نکل کر ان کے پاس تشریف نہ لائے حتیٰ کہ آپ صبح کی نماز کے لئے تشریف لائے ۔ جب صبح کی نماز پوری کرلی تو لوگوں کی طرف متوجہ ہوئے ، پھر شہادتین پڑھ کر ( یہ خطبے کا حصہ ہیں ) فرمایا : " اما بعد! واقعہ یہ ہے کہ آج رات تمہارا حال مجھ سے مخفی نہ تھا لیکن مجھے خدشہ ہوا کہ رات کی نماز تم پر فرض نہ کردی جائے پر تم اس ( کی ادائیگی ) سے عاجز رہو ۔ "

sahih-muslim-1785

Zirr (b. Hubaish) reported: I heard from Ubayy b. Ka'b a statement made by 'Abdullah b. Mas'ud in which he said: He who gets up for prayer (every night) during the year will hit upon Lailat-ul-Qadr. Ubayy said: By Allah I there is no god but He, that (Lailat-ul-Qadr) is in Ramadhan (He swore without reservation: ) By Allah, I know the night; it is the night on which the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) commanded us to pray. It is that which precedes the morning of twenty-seventy and its indication is that the sun rises bright on that day without rays.

Ubayy b Ka'b reported: By Allah, I know about Lailat-ul Qadr and I know it fully well that it is the twenty-seventh night (during Ramadan) on which the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) commanded us to observe prayer. (Shu'ba was in doubt about these words: the night on which the Messenger of Allah [may peace be upon him] commanded us to observe the prayer. This has been transmitted to me by a friend of mine.)

sahih-muslim-1788

Ibn `Abbas reported: I spent a night with my maternal aunt (sister of my mother) Maimuna. The Apostle of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) got up during the night and relieved himself, then washed his face and hands and went to sleep. He then got up again, and came to the water skin and loosened its straps, then performed good ablution between the two extremes. He then stood up and observed prayer. I also stood up and stretched my body fearing that he might be under the impression that I was there to find out (what he did at night). So I also performed ablution and stood up to pray, but I stood on his left. He took hold of my hand and made me go around to his right side. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) completed thirteen rak`ahs of his night prayer. He then lay down and slept and snored (and it was his habit to snore while asleep). Then Bilal came and he informed him about the prayer. He (the Holy Prophet) then stood up for prayer and did not perform ablution, and his supplication included these words: O Allah, place light in my heart, light in my sight, light in my hearing, light on my right hand, light on my left hand, light above me, light below me, light in front of me, light behind me, and enhance light for me. Kuraib (the narrator) said: There are seven (words more) which are in my heart (but I cannot recall them) and I met some of the descendants of Al-`Abbas and they narrated these words to me and mentioned in them: (Light) in my sinew, in my flesh, in my blood, in my hair, in my skin, and made a mention of two more things.

Kuraib, the freed slave of Ibn `Abbas, reported that Ibn `Abbas narrated to him that he spent a night in the house of Maimuna, the mother of the believers, who was his mother's sister. I lay down across the cushion, whereas the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and his wife lay down on it length-wise. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) slept till midnight, or a little before midnight, or a little after midnight, and then got up and began to cast off the effects of sleep from his face by rubbing with his hand, and then recited the ten concluding verses of Surah Al-`Imran. He then stood up near a hanging water-skin and performed ablution well, and then stood up and prayed, Ibn `Abbas said: I also stood up and did the same, as the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) had done, and then went to him and stood by his side. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) placed his right hand upon my head and took hold of my right ear and twisted it, and then observed a pair of rak`ahs, again a pair of rak`ahs, again a pair of rak`ahs, again a pair of rak`ahs, again a pair of rak`ahs, again a pair of rak`ahs, and then observed Witr and then lay down till the Mu'adhdhin came to him. He (the Holy Prophet) then stood up and observed two short rak`ahs, and then went out (to the mosque) and observed the dawn prayer.
