حَدَّثَنَا
أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ،
وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ الْمُرَادِيُّ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا
ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، عَنْ
مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ
عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَيْسٍ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ
لِعَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا : بِكَمْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُوتِرُ ؟ قَالَتْ : " كَانَ يُوتِرُ بِأَرْبَعٍ وَثَلَاثٍ وَسِتٍّ وَثَلَاثٍ وَثَمَانٍ وَثَلَاثٍ وَعَشْرٍ وَثَلَاثٍ ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ يُوتِرُ بِأَنْقَصَ مِنْ سَبْعٍ وَلَا بِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ " . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : زَادَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ : " وَلَمْ يَكُنْ يُوتِرُ بِرَكْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ الْفَجْرِ " ، قُلْتُ : مَا يُوتِرُ ، قَالَتْ : " لَمْ يَكُنْ يَدَعُ ذَلِكَ " . وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ أَحْمَدُ : " وَسِتٍّ وَثَلَاثٍ " .
Abdullah bin Abi Qais said that he asked Aishah: How many rak'ahs would the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray observing the witr ? She said: He used to observe the witr with four and three, six and three, eight and three, and ten and three rak'ahs never observing less than seven or more than thirteen. The narrator Ahmad added in his version: He would not observe the witr with two rak'ahs before the dawn. I asked: With what would he observe the witr ? She said: He would never leave it. The version of Ahmad does not mention the words "six and three (rak'ahs)".

مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ
عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَيْسٍ ، قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ
عَائِشَةَ عَنْ وِتْرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَتْ : " رُبَّمَا أَوْتَرَ أَوَّلَ اللَّيْلِ ، وَرُبَّمَا أَوْتَرَ مِنْ آخِرِهِ " قُلْتُ : كَيْفَ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَتُهُ ، أَكَانَ يُسِرُّ بِالْقِرَاءَةِ أَمْ يَجْهَرُ ؟ قَالَتْ : " كُلَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَ يَفْعَلُ رُبَّمَا أَسَرَّ ، وَرُبَّمَا جَهَرَ ، وَرُبَّمَا اغْتَسَلَ فَنَامَ ، وَرُبَّمَا تَوَضَّأَ فَنَامَ " . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : وقَالَ غَيْرُ قُتَيْبَةَ : تَعْنِي فِي الْجَنَابَةِ .
Abdullah bin Abu Qais said: I asked Aishah about the witr observes by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She replied: Sometime he observed the witr prayer in the early hours of the night, sometimes he observed it at the end of it. I asked: How did he recite the Quran ? Did he recite the Quran quietly or loudly ? She replied: He did it in any way. Sometimes he recited quietly and sometimes loudly, sometimes he took bath and then slept and sometimes he performed ablution and then slept. Abu Dawud said: The narrators other than Qutaibah said: This refer to his bath due to sexual defilement.
