472. Narrated Nāfi': Ibn 'Umar رضي الله عنه said, "While the Prophet ﷺ was on the pulpit, a man asked him how to offer the night Salāt (prayers). He replied, 'Pray two Rak'ā at a time and then two and then two and so on, and if you are afraid of the dawn (the approach of the time of the Fajr prayer) pray one Rak'ā and that will be the Witr for all the Rak'ā which you have offered.'" Ibn 'Umar said, "Make an end of your (Tahajjud) night Salāt with an odd Rak'ā, for the Prophet ﷺ ordered it to be so."

Arabic text

472 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ المُفَضَّلِ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ عَلَى المِنْبَرِ، مَا تَرَى فِي صَلاَةِ اللَّيْلِ، قَالَ: «مَثْنَى مَثْنَى، فَإِذَا خَشِيَ الصُّبْحَ صَلَّى وَاحِدَةً، فَأَوْتَرَتْ لَهُ مَا صَلَّى» وَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ: اجْعَلُوا آخِرَ صَلاَتِكُمْ وِتْرًا، فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَرَ بِهِ
