وَقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: إِنَّ النَّضْرَ بْنَ شُمَيْلٍ، ثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ قَالَ:

قُلْتُ لِمِقْسَمٍ: إِنِّي أُوتِرُ بِثَلَاثٍ ثُمَّ أَخْرُجُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ، قَالَ: لَا وَتْرَ إِلَّا بِسَبْعٍ أَوْ خَمْسٍ، فَلَقِيتُ مُجَاهِدًا وَيَحْيَى بْنَ الْجَزَّارِ فَذَكَرْتُ لَهُمَا، فَقَالَا: سَلْهُ: عَنْ مَنْ ؟ فَقَالَ: عَنِ الثِّقَةِ، عَنِ الثِّقَةِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ وَمَيْمُونَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ

✧ I said to Miqsam: 'I perform witr with three [rak'ahs], then I go out to the prayer.' He said: 'There is no witr except with seven or five.' Then I met Mujahid and Yahya b. al-Jazzar and mentioned that to them. They said: 'Ask him: from whom?' He said: 'From the trustworthy one, from the trustworthy one, from 'A'ishah and Maymunah, from the Prophet ﷺ.'
