FIQH 2.17: SUPPLICATIONS AFTER THE WITR
It is preferred for a person to say after the taslim: “Glory be to the Master, the Holy,” three times aloud, saying the third time: “Lord of the angels and the souls.” Abu Dawud and anNasa’i record that Ubayy ibn Ka’b said: “The Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam would recite al-A’la and al-Kafirun in the witr prayer. When he made the taslim, he would say: ‘Glory be to the Master, the Holy ,’ three times, prolonging the third repetition and saying it aloud.” This is the wording in which an-Nasa’i recorded it.
Ad-Daraqutni has the addition: “And he would say, ‘Lord of the angels and the spirits. “‘ He would then make supplications and, according to what Ahmad, anNasa’i, Abu Dawud, Ibn Majah, and at-Tirmidhi record from ‘Ali, he would say at the end of his witr: “O Allah, I seek refuge in Your pleasure from your anger. And I seek refuge in Your granting well being from Your punishment. And I seek refuge in You from You. I cannot reckon Your praise: You are as You have praised Yourself.”
Fiqh 2.17 a: Prohibition of two witr prayers in one night
Whoever has performed the witr prayer and then wishes to do some more, he may do so but he is not to repeat the witr.
Abu Dawud, an-Nasa’i, and at-Tirmizhi have recorded from ‘Ali that he heard the Messenger of Allah say: “There are no two witr prayers in one night.” At-Tirmizhi grades it hasan.
‘Aishah relates that the Prophet would make the taslim in such a manner that we could hear him and then, he would pray two rak’at while sitting. This is related by Muslim.
Umm Salamah also narrates that he prayed two rak’at while sitting, after the witr prayer. This was related by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, at-Tirmidhi, and others.
