Hadith 1629
اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عُمَرَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ"كَانَ يُوتِرُ عَلَى الْبَعِيرِ" . قِيلَ لِأَبِي مُحَمَّدٍ: تَقُولُ بِهِ ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to offer Witr on a camel. Imam Darimi (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked: Do you also say the same? He said: Yes (that is, Witr can be offered on a mount).
Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadith 1628)
From this hadith, it is established that offering witr (witr) prayer while mounted on a riding animal is permissible. The esteemed scholars have said: This is evidence for the non-obligation of witr, because the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) would only perform voluntary (nafl) prayers while mounted, and if it were an obligatory (fard) prayer, he would dismount and perform it.
And Allah knows best.
