- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
Although the exact date on which the Witr prayer is obligatory is not known, it is clear from various books, such as Ma'arifus Sunan 4:16 and Umdatul Qari 6:12, that the Witr prayer began after the conquest of Mecca and before the Hajj became obligatory. That is, it became obligatory at some point between the eighth and ninth Hijri. The beginning of the obligatory Witr prayer is that the Companions said: We have been praying five times for a long time. Once the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) told us to gather. We got together. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) looked at us after Hamd-Sana and said, 'Allaah has increased one more prayer for you, which is better than the red camel.' He then instructed us to offer the Witr prayer. 6579363587
