حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ مَوْلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ عَنْ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ فَقَال
َ ابْنُ عُمَرَ سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ وَأَنَا بَيْنَهُمَا فَقَالَ صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى فَإِذَا خَشِيتَ الصُّبْحَ فَبَادِرْ الصُّبْحَ بِرَكْعَةٍ وَرَكْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ

English Translation
It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar (رضي الله عنهما) — via Abu Sa'id the mawla of Banu Hashim, from Layth, from 'Asim, from 'Abdullah ibn Shaqiq — that he said: 'I asked Ibn 'Umar about the night prayer. Ibn 'Umar said: "A man asked the Prophet ﷺ about the night prayer while I was between them. He said: 'The night prayer is two rak'as at a time. When you fear [the break of] Fajr, hasten to finish with one rak'a [for Witr], and [pray] two rak'as before the Fajr prayer.'"'
