Chapter 14: Witr Prayer
Narrated Ibn 'Umar: Once a person asked Allah' s Messenger (ﷺ) (ﷺ) about the night prayer. Allah' s
Apostle (ﷺ) replied, "The night prayer is offered as two Rak 'at followed by
two Rak 'at and so on and if anyone is afraid of the approaching dawn
(Fajr prayer) he should pray one Rak 'ah and this will be a Witr for all
the Rak 'at which he has prayed before."
Sahih al-Bukhari 990
