English translation

[1751] 148 - (...) It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin 'Umar that a man asked the Prophet ﷺ, when I was between him and the one who was asking, saying: “O Messenger of Allâh, how are the night prayers?” He said: “Two by two, then when you fear that dawn may come, then pray one Rak'ah, and make the last of your prayer Witr.” Then a man asked him, one year later, and I was in the same position with regard to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, and I do not know whether it was the same man or another man, and he told him something similar.

Arabic text

148 - (749) وحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ الزَّهْرَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، وَبُدَيْلٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَأَنَا بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ السَّائِلِ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَيْفَ صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ؟ قَالَ: «مَثْنَى مَثْنَى، فَإِذَا خَشِيتَ الصُّبْحَ، فَصَلِّ رَكْعَةً، وَاجْعَلْ آخِرَ صَلَاتِكَ وِتْرًا». ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ عَلَى رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ، وَأَنَا بِذَلِكَ الْمَكَانِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلَا أَدْرِي هُوَ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ، أَوْ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ.
