1682 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ قَالَ: «مَنْ صَلَّى مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَلْيَجْعَلْ آخِرَ صَلَاتِهِ وِتْرًا، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَأْمُرُ بِذَلِكَ»

Commentary
It becomes known from these narrations that the Witr may be performed after performing the Isha prayer until the crack of dawn. However, if one wants to offer Tarâwih or Tahajjud, he should offer Witr at the end of his optional prayer. He should not offer it in the beginning or midway.
