The traveller: is witr due from him?

Al-Dahhak said: "Witr is not binding on the traveller."

Abu Mijlaz said: I asked Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) about witr: "If I am travelling, should I pray witr?" He said: "Pray one rak'ah at the end of the night."

Khalid bin Dinar reports from a shaykh who said: I was with Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) on a journey, and as far as I remember he did not pray witr.

Sa'id bin Jubayr said that Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) prayed witr while on a journey.

Sayyiduna Ibn Umar and Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them all) said: "Praying witr while on a journey is a sunnah."
