I pray 'Isha', then the two rak'ahs of the sunnah, then one rak'ah of witr, and I always make the du'a of qunut. Is this practice of mine correct?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you good. One of them says: Shaykh Salih, I pray 'Isha', then the two rak'ahs of the sunnah, then one rak'ah of witr, and I always make the du'a of qunut. Is this correct?

Answer:
This is correct, praise be to Allah. The minimum for witr is one rak'ah, and the most that has been mentioned is three rak'ahs. The highest is what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do: twelve rak'ahs or thirteen rak'ahs. As for what is in between, he may complete his prayer with three, and he may complete it with one, and this is the minimum for witr. He may complete it with three rak'ahs, he may complete it with five, he may complete it with seven, he may complete it with nine, he may complete it with eleven, he may complete it with thirteen, and he may pray whatever is easy for him of the night prayer and perform tahajjud, and conclude his prayer with witr. The matter is broad, praise be to Allah.
