The Qunut During Witr
Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ بَعْضِ، أَصْحَابِهِ أَنَّ أُبَىَّ بْنَ كَعْبٍ، أَمَّهُمْ - يَعْنِي فِي رَمَضَانَ - وَكَانَيَقْنُتُ فِي النِّصْفِ الآخِرِ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ
Translation
Muhammad reported on the authority of some of his teachers that Ubayy b. Ka'b led them in prayer during Ramadan. He used to recite the supplication (in the witr) during the second half of Ramadan.
