Sahih al-Bukhari
Prayer at Night (Tahajjud)
Chapter: To offer the Nawafil after the compulsory (congregational) Salat (prayers)
Narrated Ibn `Umar:
I offered with the Prophet (ﷺ) two rak`at before the Zuhr and two rak`at after the Zuhr prayer; two rak`at after Maghrib, `Isha' and the Jumua prayers. Those of the Maghrib and `Isha' were offered in his house. My sister Hafsa told me that the Prophet (ﷺ) used to offer two light rak`at after dawn and it was the time when I never went to the Prophet."
