Arabic text

1416 - حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَا أَهْلَ الْقُرْآنِ، أَوْتِرُوا، فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ وِتْرٌ، يُحِبُّ الْوِتْرَ»،

Commentary

The term Witr means odd in number, and refers to the last odd numbered Rak'ah performed during the voluntary night prayer.
