Muwatta Malik #260
Tahajjud
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، كَانَ يُصَلِّي مِنَ اللَّيْلِ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ مِنْ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ أَيْقَظَ أَهْلَهُ لِلصَّلاَةِ يَقُولُ لَهُمُ الصَّلاَةَ الصَّلاَةَ ثُمَّ يَتْلُو هَذِهِ الآيَةَ {وَأْمُرْ أَهْلَكَ بِالصَّلاَةِ وَاصْطَبِرْ عَلَيْهَا لاَ نَسْأَلُكَ رِزْقًا نَحْنُ نَرْزُقُكَ وَالْعَاقِبَةُ لِلتَّقْوَى}
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from his
father that Umar ibn al-Khattab used to pray as much as Allah willed
in the night until at the end of the night he would wake his family
for the prayer. He used to say to them, "The prayer, the prayer." Then
he would recite the ayat, "Enjoin prayer on your family and be
constant in it. We do not ask you for your provision. We provide for
you. And the end result is for taqwa." (Sura 20 ayat 132)
