وعنها قالت: ما كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، يزيد في رمضان ولا في غيره على إحدي عشرة ركعة: يصلي أربعًا فلا تسأل عن حسنهن وطولهن! ثم يصلي أربعًا فلا تسأل عن حسنهن وطولهن! ثم يصلي ثلاثًا. فقلت: يا رسول الله أتنام قبل أن توتر!؟ فقال: «يا عائشة إن عيني تنامان ولا ينام قلبي»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) did not observe more than eleven Rakah (of Tahajjud prayers), be in Ramadan or any other month. First of all he would perform four Rakah. Ask not about their excellence and their length. He (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) would then perform four more Rakah; and do not ask about their excellence and their length.

Then he would perform three Rakah (Witr prayer). (Aishah (radiyallahu anha) added) I submitted: “O Messenger of Allah! Do you sleep before performing the Witr prayer?” He (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “O Aishah! My eyes sleep but my heart does not sleep.”.
