[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I have been commanded to observe the two sunnah rak'ahs of Dhuha prayer and the witr prayer, and they are not obligatory."  

أحمد:٢٠٦٥حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أُمِرْتُ بِرَكْعَتَيِ الضُّحَى وَبِالْوَتْرِ وَلَمْ يُكْتَبْ
