Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ بِتُّ عِنْدَ خَالَتِي مَيْمُونَةَ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُصَلِّي مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَقُمْتُ عَنْ شِمَالِهِ فَقَالَ بِي هَكَذَا فَأَخَذَ بِرَأْسِي فَأَقَامَنِي عَنْ يَمِينِهِ ‏.‏

Translation

Yaqub ibn Ibrahim narrated to us: Ibn Ulayyah narrated to us from Ayyub, from Abdullah ibn Sa‘id ibn Jubayr, from his father, from Ibn Abbas, who said: I spent the night with my maternal aunt Maymunah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ got up to pray at night, and I stood to his left. He gestured for me to move, took me by the head, and positioned me to his right.
