The Witr Prayer on the Night of Muzdalifah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Standing in prayer that night and performing the Witr prayer in it is for the one who is accustomed to it.

The Shaykh:
The one who does not stand up only prays Maghrib and 'Isha' and sleeps, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did.

The questioner:
and peace.

The Shaykh:
They differed on whether he performed Witr or not. However, it is not reported that he performed Witr in Muzdalifah. But his past and consistent Sunnah was that he did not leave the Witr, (peace and blessings be upon him). However, he would hasten the Fajr prayer, praying at the first appearance of dawn, in order to free himself for supplication.
