أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأنا أَسْمَعُ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ عَنْ نَافِعٍ وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ دِينَارٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى فَإِذَا خَشِيَ أَحَدُكُمُ الصُّبْحَ صَلَّى رَكْعَةً وَاحِدَةً تُوتِرُ لَهُ مَا قَدْ صَلَّى»

✧ A man asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the night prayer, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The night prayer is two by two, and when one of you fears the dawn, he prays one rak'ah, which makes Witr for him what he has already prayed."
