English Translation
Yahya ibn Ishaq told us: Ibn Lahi'ah informed us: Abdullah ibn Hubayrah informed us, he said: I heard Abu Tamim al-Jayshani say: I heard Amr ibn al-'As say: A man among the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed me, saying: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah, Mighty and Sublime, has increased you with a prayer, so pray it between the Isha prayer and the Fajr prayer: the Witr, the Witr" — and he is Abu Basrah al-Ghifari. Abu Tamim said: I and Abu Dharr were sitting, and Abu Dharr took my hand and we went to Abu Basrah, and we found him at the door adjoining the house of Amr ibn al-'As. Abu Dharr said: "O Abu Basrah, did you hear the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Allah, Mighty and Sublime, has increased you with a prayer; pray it between the Isha prayer and the Fajr prayer: the Witr, the Witr'?" He said: "Yes." He said: "You heard it yourself?" He said: "Yes." He said: "You heard it yourself?" He said: "Yes."
