حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِثَلَاثٍ، وَنَهَانِي عَنْ ثَلَاثٍ: " أَمَرَنِي بِرَكْعَتَيِ الضُّحَى كُلَّ يَوْمٍ، وَالْوِتْرِ قَبْلَ النَّوْمِ، وَصِيَامِ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ، وَنَهَانِي عَنْ نَقْرَةٍ كَنَقْرَةِ الدِّيكِ، وَإِقْعَاءٍ كَإِقْعَاءِ الْكَلْبِ، وَالْتِفَاتٍ كَالْتِفَاتِ الثَّعْلَبِ " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that my beloved Prophet (ﷺ) advised me regarding three things and forbade me from three things. The advice was: (1) to perform Witr prayer before sleeping, (2) to fast three days in every month, (3) and to perform two units of Duha (forenoon) prayer. And the prohibition was: from looking around to the right and left in prayer, sitting like a dog, and pecking like a rooster.
