It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once during the month of Ramadan, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came out and led a short prayer, then left. After quite some time, he came again and led a short prayer, then again went back and stayed inside for a long while. When morning came, the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said, "O Messenger of Allah! We were sitting here tonight, you came and led a short prayer and then went inside for a long time?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "It was because of you that I did so."
