أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ
«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي مِنَ اللَّيْلِ ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً يُوتِرُ مِنْهَا بِخَمْسٍ لَا يَجْلِسُ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنَ الْخَمْسِ إِلَّا فِي آخِرِهِنَّ يَجْلِسُ ثُمَّ يُسَلِّمُ»

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray thirteen rak'ahs during the night, observing a witr out of that with five, he did not sit during the five except the last and then gave the salutation. Abu Dawud said: Ibn Numair reported it from Hisham recently. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1338)

ذكر قوم من رواة هذا الحديث عن هشام أنه كان يوتر ذلك بخمس لا يجلس في شيء من الخمس ركعات إلا في آخرهن رواه حماد بن سلمة وأبو عوانة ووهيب وغيرهم وأكثر الحفاظ رووه عن هشام كما رواه مالك والرواية المخالفة له إنما حدث بها عن هشام أهل العراق وما حدث به هشام قبل خروجه إلى العراق أصح عندهم
machine translationA group of the narrators of this hadith from Hishām mentioned that he used to pray the Witr with five rakʿahs, not sitting in any of the five rakʿahs except in the last of them. Ḥammād b. Salamah, Abū ʿAwānah, Wuhayb and others narrated it. Most of the memorizers (ḥuffāẓ) narrated it from Hishām as Mālik narrated it, and the narration that differs from it was only reported from Hishām by the people of Iraq. What Hishām narrated before his departure to Iraq is more authentic (aṣaḥḥ) in their view.
