وَ رَوَى اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ صَلاَةِ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ بِالنَّهَارِ فَقَالَ« وَ مَنْ يُطِيقُ ذَلِكَ» ثُمَّ قَالَ« وَ لَكِنْ أَ لاَ أُخْبِرُكَ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ أَنَا» فَقُلْتُ بَلَى فَقَالَ« ثَمَانِيَ رَكَعَاتٍ قَبْلَ اَلظُّهْرِ وَ ثَمَانٍ بَعْدَهَا» قُلْتُ فَالْمَغْرِبُ قَالَ« أَرْبَعٌ بَعْدَهَا» قُلْتُ فَالْعَتَمَةُ قَالَ« كَانَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ يُصَلِّي اَلْعَتَمَةَ ثُمَّ يَنَامُ» وَ قَالَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا فَحَرَّكَهَا: قَالَ اِبْنُ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ ثُمَّ وَصَفَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ كَمَا ذَكَرَ أَصْحَابُنَا

Translation

Al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id narrated from Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr from Hammad ibn ‘Uthman. He said: I asked Abu Abdillah (a.s) about the prayer of the Messenger of Allah (swt), may Allah (swt) bless him and his family, during the day. Imam (a.s) said: “And who can endure that?” Then Imam (a.s) said: “Shall I not inform you how I myself do?” I said: “Yes.” So Imam (a.s) said: “Eight rak‘ahs before Dhuhr and eight after it.” I asked: “(What about) Maghrib?” Imam (a.s) said: “Four after it.” I asked: “(What about) the ‘atamah (night prayer)?” Imam (a.s) said: “The Messenger of Allah (swt), may Allah (swt) bless him and his family, used to pray ‘atamah and then sleep.” And Imam (a.s) moved his hand like this. Ibn Abi Umayr said: Then Imam (a.s) described it as our companions have mentioned.
