Sunan Ibn Majah

"We asked Aishah what the Messenger of Allah (saw) used to recite in Witr. She said: 'He used to recite: "Glorify the Name of your Lord the Most High," [Al-A'la (87)] in the first Rakah, 'Say: "O disbelievers!'" [Al- Kafirun (109)] in the second Rakah, and 'Say: Allah is One' in the third and the Mu'awwidhatain (Chapter 113, 114).'" Sahih

He said: 'Put "what do you think" up there with that star? (i.e., don't think about it at all).' I raised my head and saw As- Simak.* He repeated that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, 'Night prayers are to be offered two by two, and Witr is one Rakah, before dawn.'" Sahih

"My grandfather, the Messenger of Allah (saw), taught me some words to say in Qunut of Witr: Allahumma 'afini fiman 'afait, wa tawallani fiman tawallait, wahdini fiman hadait, wa qini sharra ma qadait, wa barik li fima a'tait. Innaka taqdi wa la yuqda 'alaik, innahu la yudhillu man walait. Subhanaka rabbana tabarakta wa ta'alait (O Allah, pardon me along with those whom You have pardoned, be an ally to me along with those whom You are an ally to, guide me along with those whom You have guided, protect me from the evil that You have decreed, and bless for me that which You have bestowed. For verily You decree and none can decree over You. He whom You support can never be humiliated. Glory is to You, our Lord, You are Blessed and Exalted)." Hasan

I cannot enumerate Your praise, You are as You have praised Yourself)." Daif
