Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى عَنْ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى فَإِذَا خَشِيتَ الْفَجْرَ فَأَوْتِرْ بِوَاحِدَةٍ.
English Translation
Abd al-A'la ibn Abd al-A'la narrated to us, from Khalid, from Abdullah ibn Shaqiq, from Ibn Umar, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: The night prayer is two by two; and when you fear the approach of dawn, then pray witr with one (rak'ah).
