"Witr is not essential like the obligatory prayers, but it is the sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."  

الْوِتْرُ لَيْسَ بِحَتْمٍ كَهَيْئَةِ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ وَلَكِنَّهُ سُنَّةٌ سَنَّهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

Witr is not a must like regular prayer, but it is a Sunnah that was established by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.  

لَيْسَ الْوَتْرُ بِحَتْمٍ كَهَيْئَةِ الصَّلاةِ وَلَكِنْ سُنَّةٌ سَنَّهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ  

Witr is not a must like the obligatory prayers, but it is a Sunnah established by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.  

لَيْسَ الْوَتْرُ بِحَتْمٍ كَهَيْئَةِ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ وَلَكِنَّهُ سُنَّةٌ سَنَّهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ  

Witr is not a must, but it is a Sunnah that was established by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ .  

الْوَتْرُ لَيْسَ بِحَتْمٍ وَلَكِنَّهُ سُنَّةٌ سَنَّهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ  

[Machine] I heard Ali saying, "Verily, Witr (a specific prayer) is not obligatory like the regular prayers, but it is a recommended act, so do not neglect it."  

سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا يَقُولُ «إِنَّ الْوِتْرَ لَيْسَ بِحَتْمٍ كَالصَّلَاةِ وَلَكِنَّهُ سُنَّةٌ فَلَا تَدَعُوهُ»  

Witr is not a must like the obligatory prayers, but it is a Sunnah established by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. (Using translation from Aḥmad 927)   

«لَيْسَ الْوِتْرُ بِحَتْمٍ مِثْلَ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ وَلَكِنَّهَا سُنَّةٌ سَنَّهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ»  

Witr is not a must like the obligatory prayers, but it is a Sunnah established by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. (Using translation from Aḥmad 927)   

«لَيْسَ الْوِتْرُ بِحَتْمٍ مِثْلَ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ وَلَكِنَّهُ سُنَّةٌ سَنَّهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ»  

" عن عَلِىٍّ قالَ: الوِتْرُ لَيْسَ بِحَتْمٍ مثل الصَّلاَةِ الْمكتُوبَةِ، وَلَكِنَّه سُنَّةٌ سَنَّها رَسولُ الله ﷺ ".
