English translation

As-Sa’ib b. Yazid said:

'Umar ordered Ubayy b. Ka'b and Tamim ad-Dari to lead the people in eleven rak'as during the night in Ramadan. The reader was reciting [a <i>sura</i> with over] a hundred verses in each <i>rak'a</i> so that we leaned on our sticks because of standing so long, and we did not depart till the dawn was beginning to break. Malik transmitted it.
