كتاب قيام الليل وتطوع النهار
The Book of Qiyam Al-Lail (The Night Prayer) and Voluntary Prayers During the Day
" لاَ وِتْرَانِ فِي لَيْلَةٍ "
"My father, Talq bin 'Ali visited me one day in Ramadan and stayed with us until the evening. He led us in praying Qiyam that night and prayed witr with us. Then he went down to a masjid and led his companions in prayer until only witr was left. Then he told a man to go forward and said to him: 'Lead them in praying witr, for I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: There should not be two witrs in one night."
