1432. It was reported from Abū Saʿeed, of Azdīshanuwʿah, from Abū Hurairah, that he said: "My close friend (the Prophet ﷺ) advised me with three matters which I will never abandon, whether I am travelling or not: (To pray) two Rakʿahs of Duha, and (to) fast three days of every month, and that I not sleep except after praying Witr." (Sahih)
1432 - حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، مِنْ أَزْدِ شَنُوءَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: " أَوْصَانِي خَلِيلِي صلّى الله عليه وسلم بِثَلَاثٍ لَا أَدَعُهُنَّ فِي سَفَرٍ، وَلَا حَضَرٍ: رَكْعَتَيِ الضُّحَى، وَصَوْمِ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ، وَأَنْ لَا أَنَامَ إِلَّا عَلَى وِتْرٍ "

In case a person fears he cannot wake up from his sleep until the onset of dawn, he should perform the Witr prayer before he goes to bed.
