Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

Tahajjud Salaah (midnight Salaah) and Witar Salaah

Hadrat Aswad (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated:

I asked Hadrat Aishah (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anha) about the night Salaah (Tahajjud and Witar) of the Prophet as to what was the normal practice of the Prophet. She replied,” The Prophet used to repose himself in the early part of the night. Thereafter he used to say Tahajjud Salaah till it was late in the night and then he would say Witr Salaah. After that he would go to his bed and if he felt inclined he would go to his wife. Then soon after the Azaan (call for Salaah) for Fajr Salaah (morning Salaah) he would get up and would take bath if necessary otherwise would perform wudu and go to the mosque for performing Salaah.
