Musnad Ahmad 4571 — Musnad of Abdullah ibn Umar ibn al-Khattab
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سُئِلَ عَنْ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ ؟ فَقَالَ : " مَثْنَى مَثْنَى ، فَإِذَا خِفْتَ الصُّبْحَ ، فَأَوْتِرْ بِوَاحِدَةٍ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once a man asked the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) about the night prayer. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You should pray the night prayer in pairs of two rak‘ahs, and when you fear that morning is near, then add one rak‘ah as witr to those two."
