Riyad as-Salihin: Book 8, Hadith 146

‘Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: The Prophet (ﷺ) used to perform his voluntary prayer at night (i.e., Tahajjud prayer) while she was sleeping in front of him; and when the Witr prayer was yet to be observed, he would awaken her to perform her Witr prayer..

وعن عائشة رضي الله عنها أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كان يصلي بالليل، وهي معترضة بين يديه، فإذا بقي الوتر، أيقظها فأوترت‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
وفي رواية له‏:‏ فإذا بقي الوتر قال‏:‏ ‏
“‏قومي فأوتري يا عائشة‏”‏
