Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 3733 — in the month of Ramadan the Messenger
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الطَّلْحِيُّ قَالَ : نَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ قَالَ : نَا يَعْقُوبُ الْقُمِّيُّ ، عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ جَارِيَةَ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ : صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ ثَمَانِيَ رَكَعَاتٍ وَأَوْتَرَ ، فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ الْقَابِلَةُ اجْتَمَعْنَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، رَجَوْنَا أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ بِنَا قَالَ : إِنِّي خَشِيتُ ، أَوْ كَرِهْتُ أَنْ يُكْتَبَ عَلَيْكُمْ .
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that in the month of Ramadan the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led us in eight rak'ahs and prayed the witr. Then when the next night came, we gathered in the mosque, hoping that he (peace and blessings be upon him) would lead us in prayer (but he (peace and blessings be upon him) did not come out). Later he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I feared", or he said: "I disliked, that this prayer might be made obligatory upon you."
