Hadith 3765

Sahih

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا نَافِعُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، قِيلَ لاِبْنِ عَبَّاسٍ هَلْ لَكَ فِي أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مُعَاوِيَةَ، فَإِنَّهُ مَا أَوْتَرَ إِلاَّ بِوَاحِدَةٍ‏.‏ قَالَ إِنَّهُ فَقِيهٌ‏.‏

Somebody said to Ibn `Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما , "Can you speak to the chief of the believers Mu`awiyah رضی اللہ عنہ , as he does not pray except one rak`a as witr?" Ibn `Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما replied, "He is a Faqih (i.e. a learned man who can give religious verdicts) ."
