حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنْ يَحْيَی بْنِ أَبِي کَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ قَالَتْ کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُوتِرُ بِوَاحِدَةٍ ثُمَّ يَرْکَعُ رَکْعَتَيْنِ يَقْرَأُ فِيهِمَا وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْکَعَ قَامَ فَرَکَعَ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 1196
It was narrated that Abu Salamah said: "Aishah narrated to me that the Messenger of Allah SAW prayed Witr with one Rak'ah, then he prayed two Rak' ah in which he recited while sitting, then when he wanted to bow, he stood up and bowed."(Sahih).
