[Machine] He asked Abu Hurairah how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to perform the Witr prayer. Abu Hurairah remained silent, then he asked him again and he remained silent, then he asked him again and he remained silent. Then he said, "If you wish, I will tell you how I do it." He said, "I asked him to tell me, so he said, 'When I pray Isha, I pray five units afterward, then I sleep. If I wake up during the night, I pray two units at a time. If morning comes, I pray the odd-numbered units.'"
أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُوتِرُ؟ قَالَ فَسَكَتَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ فَسَكَتَ ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ فَسَكَتَ ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ إِنْ شِئْتَ أَخْبَرْتُكَ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ أَنَا قَالَ فَقُلْتُ فَأَخْبِرْنِي فَقَالَ إِذَا صَلَّيْتُ الْعِشَاءَ صَلَّيْتُ بَعْدَهَا خَمْسَ رَكَعَاتٍ ثُمَّ أَنَامُ فَإِنْ قُمْتُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ صَلَّيْتُ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى فَإِنْ أَصْبَحْتُ أَصْبَحْتُ عَلَى وِتْرٍ
