The questioner : ... The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) — is it permissible to add to them?
The Shaykh: No.
The questioner : If he stands for the night prayer, it is deficient.
The Shaykh : It is not permissible to add, my brother. What is subject to being deficient is the witr, whether it is witr or not.
The questioner : It is witr.
The Shaykh : Yes, that is it. There is no prayer after the witr except two rak'ahs.
The questioner : I mean, only that. May Allah reward you with good.
