Hadith 3764
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعَافَى ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ ، عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ، قَالَ : " أَوْتَرَ مُعَاوِيَةُ بَعْدَ الْعِشَاءِ بِرَكْعَةٍ وَعِنْدَهُ مَوْلًى لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ " فَأَتَى ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ، فَقَالَ : " دَعْهُ فَإِنَّهُ صَحِبَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " .
Narrated Ibn Abu Mulaika: Muawiya offered one rak`a witr prayer after the `Isha prayer, and at that time a freed slave of Ibn `Abbas was present. He (i.e. the slave) went to Ibn `Abbas (and told him that Muawiya offered one rak`a witr prayer). Ibn `Abbas said, "Leave him, for he was in the company of Allah's Apostle."

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ ، حَدَّثَنَا نَافِعُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ، قِيلَ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ : " هَلْ لَكَ فِي أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مُعَاوِيَةَ فَإِنَّهُ مَا أَوْتَرَ إِلَّا بِوَاحِدَةٍ ، قَالَ : إِنَّهُ فَقِيهٌ " .
Narrated Ibn Abi Mulaika: Somebody said to Ibn `Abbas, "Can you speak to the chief of the believers Muwaiya, as he does not pray except one rak`a as witr?" Ibn `Abbas replied, "He is a Faqih (i.e. a learned man who can give religious verdicts) ."

حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ حُمْرَانَ بْنَ أَبَانَ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّكُمْ لَتُصَلُّونَ صَلَاةً لَقَدْ صَحِبْنَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَمَا رَأَيْنَاهُ يُصَلِّيهَا وَلَقَدْ نَهَى عَنْهُمَا " , يَعْنِي : الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ " .
Narrated Humran bin `Abbas: Muawiya said (to the people), "You offer a prayer which we, who were the companions of the Prophet never saw the Prophet offering, and he forbade its offering," i.e. the two rak`at after the compulsory `Asr prayer.
