[Machine] If you pray the first part of the night prayer, do not pray the last part of it. And if you pray the last part of it, do not pray the first part of it. And I asked 'Aa'idh ibn 'Amr, who was one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ, about breaking the odd number prayer (Witr). He said, "If you pray the first part of it, do not pray the last part of it. And if you pray the last part of it, do not pray the first part of it." Al-Bukhari narrated the hadith of 'Aa'idh ibn 'Amr in the sahih. He said, "And he was among the companions of the tree, from the companions of the Prophet ﷺ."
إِذَا أَوْتَرْتَ أَوَّلَ اللَّيْلِ فَلَا تُوتِرْ آخِرَهُ وَإِذَا أَوْتَرْتَ آخِرَهُ فَلَا تُوتِرْ أَوَّلَهُ وَسَأَلْتُ عَائِذَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ نَقْضِ الْوِتْرِ فَقَالَ إِذَا أَوْتَرْتَ أَوَّلَهُ فَلَا تُوتِرْ آخِرَهُ وَإِذَا أَوْتَرْتَ آخِرَهُ فَلَا تُوتِرْ أَوَّلَهُ أَخْرَجَ الْبُخَارِيُّ حَدِيثَ عَائِذِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو فِي الصَّحِيحِ قَالَ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ الشَّجَرَةِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ
