Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The witr of the night is three, just as the witr of the day (i.e., the Maghrib prayer) is three rak'ahs." The narrator who transmitted this narration, Yahya bin Zakariya, is called Ibn Abu al-Hawaj, and he is weak; only he has transmitted it from A'mash.
