Hadith 65
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الضَّحَّاكِ الْبَابْلُتِّيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ : جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ : كَيْفَ صَلاةُ اللَّيْلِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ : " مَثْنَى مَثْنَى، فَإِذَا خِفْتَ الصُّبْحَ، فَأَوْتِرْ بِوَاحِدَةٍ تُوتِرُ لَكَ صَلاتَكَ " .
Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated: A man came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked: O Messenger of Allah! How is the night prayer (to be performed)? He replied: "Two by two (rak‘ahs); when you fear that dawn is about to break, then pray one rak‘ah as witr, which will make your (previous) prayer odd."
