Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ، وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنْبَأَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يُصَلِّي فِي السَّفَرِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ. لاَ يَزِيدُ عَلَيْهِمَا. وَكَانَ يَتَهَجَّدُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ . قُلْتُ وَكَانَ يُوتِرُ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ .
Translation
Ahmad bin Sinan and Ishaq bin Mansur narrated to us: Yazid bin Harun narrated to us: Shubah informed us, from Jabir, from Salim, from his father, who said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to pray two rakahs while traveling and did not add to them. He would perform night prayer. I asked: Did he pray Witr? He replied: Yes.
