Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If one prays Witr with three, it has three forms. Yes. Yes, and he prays two rak'ahs and finishes with one.

The Shaykh : He prays two and says the taslim.

The questioner : No, no, may Allah reward you, yes.

The Shaykh : I said three.

The questioner : It is two; I am present with two.

The Shaykh : Yes, fine.

The questioner : The third is the Maghrib prayer, meaning?

The Shaykh : Well done. The third is to pray Witr like the Maghrib, and this is prohibited; it is not prescribed. That is, he recites the tashahhud in the second rak'ah and then comes with the third. This is not prescribed; it is prohibited.
