Chapter 14: Witr Prayer
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Night prayer is offered as two rak 'at followed by two rak 'at and so on, and if you
want to finish it, pray only one rak 'a which will be witr for all the previous rak 'at." Al-Qasim said,
"Since we attained the age of puberty we have seen some people offering a three-rak 'at prayer as witr
and all that is permissible. I hope there will be no harm in it."
