English translation

[1615] 36 - (...) It was narrated from Sa'eed bin Yasâr that he said: "I was travelling with Ibn 'Umar on the road to Makkah. When I feared that dawn was about to break, I dismounted and prayed Witr, then I caught up with him. Ibn 'Umar said to me: 'Where were you?' I said to him: 'I was afraid that dawn would break, so I dismounted and prayed Witr.' 'Abdullâh said: 'Do you not have an example to follow in the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ?' I said: 'Of course, by Allâh.' He said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to pray Witr atop his camel.'"

Arabic text

36 - (700) وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: كُنْتُ أَسِيرُ مَعَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ بِطَرِيقِ مَكَّةَ، قَالَ سَعِيدٌ: فَلَمَّا خَشِيتُ الصُّبْحَ نَزَلْتُ، فَأَوْتَرْتُ، ثُمَّ أَدْرَكْتُهُ، فَقَالَ لِي ابْنُ عُمَرَ: أَيْنَ كُنْتُ؟ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: خَشِيتُ الْفَجْرَ، فَنَزَلْتُ فَأَوْتَرْتُ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: أَلَيْسَ لَكَ فِي رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُسْوَةٌ، فَقُلْتُ: بَلَى وَاللهِ، قَالَ: «إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُوتِرُ عَلَى الْبَعِيرِ»
