ʿAli bin Abi Talib ؓ came out to us and they asked him about Witr. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us to pray witr at this time. O Ibn An-Nabbah, give the adhan - or, say the iqamah.  

أحمد:٦٨٩حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُوحٍ يَعْنِي قُرَادًا أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ أَبِي الْهُذَيْلِ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي أَسَدٍ قَالَ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَسَأَلُوهُ عَنِ الْوَتْرِ قَالَ فَقَالَ

أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ نُوتِرَ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ ثَوِّبْ يَا ابْنَ النَّبَّاحِ أَوْ أَذِّنْ أَوْ أَقِمْ
