It was narrated that Malik bin Al-Huwairith said:

"I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray, and when he was in an odd-numbered rak'ah, he did not get up until he had settled in a sitting position."

أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ الْحُوَيْرِثِ، قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي فَإِذَا كَانَ فِي وَتْرٍ مِنْ صَلاَتِهِ لَمْ يَنْهَضْ حَتَّى يَسْتَوِيَ جَالِسًا .
