حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ وَقَّاصٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُوتِرُ بِتِسْعِ رَكَعَاتٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ أَوْتَرَ بِسَبْعِ رَكَعَاتٍ وَرَكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ بَعْدَ الْوِتْرِ يَقْرَأُ فِيهِمَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْكَعَ قَامَ فَرَكَعَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ سَجَدَ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ رَوَى هَذينِ الْحَدِيثَيْنِ خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْوَاسِطِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو مِثْلَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ فِيهِ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ عَلْقَمَةُ بْنُ وَقَّاصٍ:‏‏‏‏ يَا أُمَّتَاهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏كَيْفَ كَانَ يُصَلِّي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ ؟ فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَاهُ.

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم used to observe the witr prayer with nine rak'ahs. Then he used to pray seven rak'ahs (of witr prayer). He would pray two rak'ahs sitting after the witr in which he would recite the Quran (sitting). When he wished to bow, he stood up and bowed and prostrated. Abu Dawud said: These two traditions have been transmitted by Khalid bin Abdullah al-Wasiti. In his version he said: Alqamah bin Waqqas said: O mother, how did he pray the two rak'ahs ? He narrated the rest of the tradition to the same effect.
