أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا قَاسِمٌ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ زُبَيْدٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبْزَی عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ کَانَ يُوتِرُ بِسَبِّحْ اسْمَ رَبِّکَ الْأَعْلَی وَقُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْکَافِرُونَ وَقُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ وَيَقُولُ بَعْدَ مَا يُسَلِّمُ سُبْحَانَ الْمَلِکِ الْقُدُّوسِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ يَرْفَعُ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1755
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abza from his father 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 after he had said the Salam, he would say: ‘Subi (Glory be to the Sovereign, the Most Holy)’ three times, raising his voice with it the third time. (Sahih)
