حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ

رضى الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَا أَهْلَ الْقُرْآنِ أَوْتِرُوا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ وِتْرٌ يُحِبُّ الْوِتْرَ»

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Allah is single (witr) and loves what is single, so observe the witr, you who follow the Qur’an.

‘আলী (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ হে কুরআনের ধারকগণ! তোমরা বিতর সালাত আদায় করো। কেননা আল্লাহ বেজোড়, তাই তিনি বেজোড়কে ভালবাসেন।[1] সহীহ।

علی رضی اللہ عنہ کہتے ہیں کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا: ”اے قرآن والو! ۱؎ وتر پڑھا کرو اس لیے کہ اللہ وتر (طاق) ہے اور وتر کو پسند کرتا ہے“۔

Telah menceritakan kepada [Ibrahim bin Musa] telah mengabarkan kepada Kami [Isa] dari [Zakaria] dari [Abu Ishaq] dari ['Ashim] dari [Ali] radliallahu 'anhu ia berkata; Rasulullah shallAllahu wa'alaihi wa sallam berkata; wahai ahli Al Qur'an, shalat witirlah kalian karena Allah adalah Dzat yang Maha Tunggal dan menyukai sesuatu yang ganjil.

Telah berkata kepada Kami [Utsman bin Abu Syaibah], telah menceritakan kepada Kami [Abu Hafsh Al Abbar] dari [Al A'masy] dari ['Amr bin Murrah] dari [Abu Ubaidah] dari [Abdullah] dari Nabi Shalla Allahu 'alaihi wa sallam dengan makna yang sama namun ia menambahkan; kemudian terdapat seorang badui berkata; apa yang kamu katakan? Dia menjawab; bukan urusanmu dan bukan urusan para sahabatmu

Ali (r.a.)'den; demiştir ki: - Resûlullah (s.a.) şöyle buyurdu: “Ey ehl-i Kur'ân; vitr namazı kılınız, çünkü Allah tektir ve vitri sever (kabul eder)

Sunan Abi Dawud 1416, Book 8, Prayer (Kitab Al-Salat): Detailed Injunctions about Witr, Hadith 1. 1 min read

What it means

This noble Hadīth includes an order for the people of the Qur'an, who are Allah's select slaves, to perform the Witr Prayer. This is because Allah is one and is unique in His essence, His attributes, and His actions and He loves what is single and odd. ''People of the Qur'an'' refers here to the believers in general, whether or not they recite the Qur'an.

However, it is likely that those who recite the Qur'an are worthier of this address. In this regard, al-Khattābi said: ''It refers to those who recite and memorize the Qur'an. They were specifically mentioned because of their special honor and as a sign of special care. So, the people of the Qur'an should regularly perform the Witr Prayer, even though this is required from everyone.

Since they have the privilege of being role models and have more knowledge that drives them to hasten to acts of obedience and good deeds, therefore they are worthier of being addressed by this prophetic order.”
