Q
How did the Prophet prepare himself for prayer after waking up in the latter part of the night?


A

He used to sleep in the early part of the night, and woke up in the latter part. If he then wished intercourse with his wife, he satisfied his desire, and then went to sleep; and when the first call to prayer was made he jumped up (by Allah, she, i. e. ‘A’isha, did not say” he stood up” ), and poured water over him (by Allah she, i. e. ‘A’isha, did not say that he took a bath but I know what she meant) and if he did not have an intercourse, he performed ablution, just as a man performs ablution for prayer and then observed two rak’ahs.
