Musnad Abi Ya'la 2106 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Whoever fears
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم: «مَنْ خَافَ أَنْ لَا يَسْتَيْقِظَ مِنْ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ فَلْيُوتِرْ أَوَّلَ اللَّيْلِ، وَمَنْ طَمِعَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَسْتَيْقِظَ مِنْ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ فَلْيُوتِرْ فِي آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ، فَإِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ مِنْ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ مَشْهُودَةٌ وَذَلِكَ أَفْضَلُ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever fears that he will not wake up in the last part of the night should pray witr in the first part of the night; and whoever among you has strong hope that he will wake up in the last part of the night should pray witr in the last part of the night, for the prayer in the last part of the night is witnessed (by the angels), and that is more virtuous."
