حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ

صَلاَةُ اللَّيْلِ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى فَإِذَا خِفْتَ الصُّبْحَ فَأَوْتِرْ بِوَاحِدَةٍ وَاجْعَلْ آخِرَ صَلاَتِكَ وِتْرًا

Abū ʿĪsā said: The hadith of Ibn ʿUmar is a good and sound (ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ) hadith, and the people of knowledge act upon this: that the night prayer is two (rakʿahs) by two.
