"عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرنِى عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَن ابن الْمُسيَّبِ أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ وعُمَرَ تَذَاكُرُوا الْوِتْرَ عِنْدَ النَّبِىِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَنَامُ عَلَى وِتْرٍ، فَإِنِ اسْتَيْقَظتُ صَلَّيْتُ شَفْعًا حَتَّى الصَّبَاح، وَقَالَ عُمَرُ: لَكِنِّى أَنَامُ عَلَى شَفْعٍ ثُمَّ أُوتِرُ مِنَ السَّحَرِ فَقَالَ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ لأَبِى بَكْرٍ. حَذِرَ هَذَا، وَقَالَ لِعُمَرَ: بَرِئ هَذَا".
