سنن نسائی · Hadith 1746

Ishaq bin Mansur informed us, he said: “Abu Dawud narrated to us, he said: Shu’bah narrated to us, from Qatadah, from ‘Abdur Rahman bin Abza, that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم used to recite in Witr: ‘Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High;’ and: ‘Say: you disbelievers!;’ and: ‘Say: He is Allah, (the) One.’ And when he finished he would say: ‘Sub (Glory be to the Sovereign, the Most Holy)’ three times, elongating the words the third time.” (Sahih)
