English Translation
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنهما) — via Muhammad ibn 'Ali, from his father, from his grandfather — from the Prophet ﷺ that he rose during the night, used the siwak [tooth-stick], then prayed two rak'ahs, then went back to sleep. Then he rose again, used the siwak, performed wudu, and prayed two rak'ahs — [continuing] until he had prayed six [voluntary rak'ahs], then prayed witr with three, and then prayed two more rak'ahs.
