Praying Witr at Different Parts of the Night

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) prayed Witr at different parts of the night.

It was narrated that 'Ali said: "At every part of the night the Messenger of Allah prayed Witr, at the beginning and in the middle, and finally his Witr was just before dawn".
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ: مِنْ كُلِّ اللَّيْلِ قَدْ أَوْتَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ . مِنْ أَوَّلِهِ وَأَوْسَطِهِ، وَانْتَهَى وِتْرُهُ إِلَى السَّحَرِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Pray consistently throughout different parts of the night
EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by 'Ali states that the Prophet Muhammad used to pray Witr, a special prayer done after Isha and before Fajr, at different parts of the night. This includes praying it in the beginning, middle and end of the night. This shows us how devoted he was to his faith and how important it is for us to follow in his footsteps. It also teaches us that we should be consistent with our prayers and not neglect them even if we are tired or busy with other things. We should strive to make time for our prayers no matter what else is going on in our lives.
