Hadith 1626
اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا قَبِيصَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي حَصِينٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ وَثَّابٍ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللهِ عَنْهَا، قَالَتْ: "فِي كُلِّ اللَّيْلِ قَدْ أَوْتَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَانْتَهَى وِتْرُهُ إِلَى السَّحَرِ".
Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed Witr in every part of the night, and towards the end, his Witr would be close to the morning.
