Sahih Muslim 753 (Book 6, Hadith 188) #8913
The Witr Prayer

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Witr prayer, which is a rak'ah at the end of the night prayer.

Abu Mijlaz reported: I asked Ibn 'Abbas about the Witr prayer. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah as saying: It is a rak'ah at the end of the night prayer.
وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ الْوِتْرِ، فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏"‏ رَكْعَةٌ مِنْ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَسَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏"‏ رَكْعَةٌ مِنْ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Perform one extra Rak'ah after Ishaa and Taraweeh prayers every day
EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith talks about the Witr prayer, which is an important part of Islamic worship. It is a single rak'ah that should be performed at the end of the night prayer. This means that after performing two or four rak’ahs for Isha’a and Taraweeh prayers, Muslims should perform one more rak’ah to complete their night prayers. This additional rak’ah is known as Witr and it has been prescribed by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as part of our religious obligations. Therefore, Muslims must make sure to perform this extra prayer every day in order to fulfill their religious duties and gain Allah's blessings.
