حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَصِينٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ وَثَّابٍ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ عَائِشَةَ عَنْ وِتْرِ، رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَتْ مِنْ كُلِّ اللَّيْلِ قَدْ أَوْتَرَ أَوَّلِهِ وَأَوْسَطِهِ وَآخِرِهِ فَانْتَهَى وِتْرُهُ حِينَ مَاتَ إِلَى السَّحَرِ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى أَبُو حَصِينٍ اسْمُهُ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ الأَسَدِيُّ . قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ وَجَابِرٍ وَأَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ وَأَبِي قَتَادَةَ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ عَائِشَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ . وَهُوَ الَّذِي اخْتَارَهُ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ الْوِتْرُ مِنْ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ .
Masruq Narrated from:
Masruq narrated that : He Asked Aishah About The Witr Of The Prophet. She Said: "He Would Perform Witr During All Of The Night; (Either) Its Beginning, Its Middle, Or Its End. So When He Died, His Witr Ended, During The Approach of As-Sahar."
[1] Meaning, at the end of his life, he ﷺ performed Witr during the last part of the night. As-Sahar is the period before Fajr . (See Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhi )Reference : Jami` at-Tirmidhi 456In-book reference : Book 3, Hadith 5English translation : Vol. 1, Book 3, Hadith 456
