رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: 990. Narrated Ibn 'Umar رضي الله عنهما: Once a man asked Allāh's Messenger ﷺ about the Ṣalāt-ul-Lail (night prayer). Allāh's Messenger ﷺ replied, "The Ṣalāt-ut-Lail (night Tahajjud prayer) is offered as two Rak'ā followed by two Rak'ā (and so on) and if anyone is afraid of the approaching dawn Fajr prayer he should offer one Rak'ā and this will be a Witr for all the Rak'ā which he has offered before." [See the Book of Ṣalāt-ut-Tahajjud, No.19]
990 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ: أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ صَلاَةِ اللَّيْلِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ: «صَلاَةُ اللَّيْلِ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى، فَإِذَا خَشِيَ أَحَدُكُمُ الصُّبْحَ صَلَّى رَكْعَةً وَاحِدَةً تُوتِرُ لَهُ مَا قَدْ صَلَّى»
