Abu Salama ibn Abd ar-Rahman asked A'isha, the wife of the Prophet (may Allah swt please with her), what the prayer of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was like during Ramadan. She said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, did not go above eleven rakas in Ramadan or at any other time. He prayed four - do not ask me about their beauty or length. Then he prayed another four - do not ask me about their beauty and length. Then he prayed three."

A'isha continued, "I said, 'Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), are you sleeping before you do the witr?' He said, A'isha, my eyes sleep but my heart does not sleep.' "
