Chapter on the Manner of Prayer, Explanation of the Fifty-One Rak‘ahs; The Order, Recitation, Tasbih in Bowing and Prostration, Qunut, and What is Obligatory and Recommended Therein

مَا رَوَاهُ عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ لَيْثٍ اَلْمُرَادِيِّ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلصَّلاَةِ فِي اَلصَّيْفِ فِي اَللَّيَالِي اَلْقِصَارِ صَلاَةِ اَللَّيْلِ فِي أَوَّلِ اَللَّيْلِ فَقَالَ« نَعَمْ نِعْمَ مَا رَأَيْتَ وَ نِعْمَ مَا صَنَعْتَ»
What was narrated by Abdullah ibn Muskan from Layth al-Muradi. He said: I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام about the prayer in the summer during the short nights, (specifically) the night prayer being performed at the beginning of the night. Imam عليه السلام said: “Yes, excellent is what you observed, and excellent is what you did.”
