Riyad as-Salihin: Book 8, Hadith 149

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: My Khalil (the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)) directed me to fast three days of each month, and to observe two Rak’ah Duha (optional prayer) at forenoon, and to perform the Witr prayer before going to bed..

عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ أوصاني خليلي صلى الله عليه وسلم بصيام ثلاثة أيام من كل شهر، وركعتي الضحى، وأن أوتر قبل أن أرقد‏”‏ ‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏
والإيتار قبل النوم إنما يستحب لمن لا يثق باستيقاظ آخر الليل، فإن وثق فآخر الليل أفضل‏.‏
