Narrated Ubai bin Ka'b (RA): Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) recited in Witr prayer Surat al-A'la (in the first Rak'at), Surat al-Kafirun (in the second Rak'at) and Surat al-Ikhlas (in the third Rak'at). [Reported by Ahmad, Abu Dawud and an-Nasa'i] . The latter added, "And he did not say the Taslim (salutation) except in the last (Rak'at) of them." Abu Dawud and at-Tirmidhi report something similar from 'Aishah (RA) that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) used to recite a Surat in every Rak'at and in the last (third) Rak'at he would recite Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad (Surat al-Ikhlas) and al-Mu'awwidhatain.
