PRACTICE OF THE COMPANIONS

1285

“Abu Darda's dearest friend advised him of three things which he said he would never abandon for as long as he lived. The first is to fast three days in each month, the second to offer two units of prayer after the sun had risen (dhuhaa) and the third not to sleep until he had offered the Witr prayer.”

Muslim with a chain up to Abu Darda' who related this.
