حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " مَنْ خَافَ مِنْكُمْ أَلَّا يَقُومَ بِاللَّيْلِ، (١) فَلْيُوتِرْ ثُمَّ يَنَامُ، وَمَنْ طَمِعَ مِنْكُمْ بِقِيَامٍ، فَلْيُوتِرْ مِنْ (٢) آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ، فَإِنَّ قِرَاءَةَ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ مَحْضُورَةٌ، وَذَلِكَ أَفْضَلُ " (٣)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever among you thinks that he may not be able to wake up in the last part of the night, he should offer Witr in the first part of the night. And whoever thinks that he will be able to wake up in the last part of the night, he should offer Witr at the end of the night, because during the last part of the night, the angels are present at the time of prayer, and this is the best way.
