English translation

1433. It was reported from Jubair bin Nufair, from Abū Ad-Dardā, who said: "My close friend (the Prophet ﷺ) advised me with three matters which I will never abandon for any reason: He advised me to fast three days of every month, and that I not sleep except after praying Witr, and (that I pray) the two Rak'ahs of Duha whether I was traveling or not."[1] (Da'if)

Arabic text

1433 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ السَّكُونِيِّ، عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ، قَالَ: " أَوْصَانِي خَلِيلِي صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِثَلَاثٍ لَا أَدَعُهُنَّ لِشَيْءٍ: أَوْصَانِي بِصِيَامِ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ، وَلَا أَنَامُ إِلَّا عَلَى وِتْرٍ، وَبِسُبْحَةِ الضُّحَى فِي الْحَضَرِ وَالسَّفَرِ "

These Hadiths encourage busy people and students to say their late-night prayer (Qiyām Al-Lail) in the first part (early hours) of night after 'Ishā'.
