Abd al-Rahman bin Yazid (may Allah have mercy on him) relates that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The witr is three, just as the witr of the day is Maghrib." This is the statement of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), not a saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
Yahya bin Zakariyya bin Abi al-Hawajib al-Kufi narrated it from al-A'mash as a saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), but he is da'if (weak), and his narration contradicts the narration of the group from al-A'mash.
