Hadith.1413 - Muhammad ibn Muslim narrated from Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) who said: "There is Qunoot (a supplication) in every two rak'ahs of the optional (supererogatory) and obligatory prayers."
1402 - كَانَ اَلنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ يَقُولُ فِي قُنُوتِ اَلْوَتْرِ « اَللَّهُمَّ اِهْدِنِي فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ وَ عَافِنِي فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ وَ تَوَلَّنِي فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ وَ بَارِكْ لِي فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَ قِنِي شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ فَإِنَّكَ تَقْضِي وَ لاَ يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ سُبْحَانَكَ رَبِّ اَلْبَيْتِ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَ أَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ وَ أُومِنُ بِكَ وَ أَتَوَكَّلُ عَلَيْكَ لاَ حَوْلَ وَ لاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِكَ يَا رَحِيمُ.
Hadith.1402 - The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, would say in the Qunoot (supplication) of the Witr prayer: Allahumma ihdini fi man hadayt, wa ‘afini fi man ‘afayt, wa tawallani fi man tawallayt, wa barik li fima a‘tayt, wa qini sharra ma qadayt, fa-innaka taqdi wa la yuqda ‘alayk. Subhanaka Rabb al-Bayt, astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk, wa uminu bika wa atawakkalu ‘alayk. La hawla wa la quwwata illa bik, ya Raheem "O’ Allah (swt), guide me among those You have guided, and grant me well-being among those You have granted well-being to, and take me under Your care among those You have taken into Your care, and bless me in what You have given, and protect me from the evil of what You have decreed. Indeed, You decree and no one can decree over You. Glory be to You, Lord (azj) of the House. I seek Your forgiveness and I turn to You in repentance. I believe in You and rely upon You. There is no power nor strength except with You, O’ Most Merciful."
1403 - وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: «أَطْوَلُكُمْ قُنُوتاً فِي دَارِ اَلدُّنْيَا أَطْوَلُكُمْ رَاحَةً يَوْمَ اَلْقِيَامَةِ فِي اَلْمَوْقِفِ.

1405 - وَ رَوَى عُمَرُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «مَنْ قَالَ فِي وَتْرِهِ إِذَا أَوْتَرَ: أَسْتَغْفِرُ اَللَّهَ رَبِّي وَ أَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً وَ وَاظَبَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ حَتَّى تَمْضِيَ سَنَةٌ كَتَبَهُ اَللَّهُ عِنْدَهُ مِنَ «اَلْمُسْتَغْفِرِينَ بِالْأَسْحٰارِ » وَ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ اَلْجَنَّةُ وَ اَلْمَغْفِرَةُ مِنَ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ.

1406 - وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «اِسْتَغْفِرِ اَللَّهَ فِي اَلْوَتْرِ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً تَنْصِبُ يَدَكَ اَلْيُسْرَى وَ تَعُدُّ بِالْيُمْنَى اَلاِسْتِغْفَارَ وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ يَسْتَغْفِرُ اَللَّهَ فِي اَلْوَتْرِ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً وَ يَقُولُ» «هَذَا مَقَامُ اَلْعَائِذِ بِكَ مِنَ اَلنَّارِ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ.

1407 - وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «تَدْعُو فِي اَلْوَتْرِ عَلَى اَلْعَدُوِّ وَ إِنْ شِئْتَ سَمَّيْتَهُمْ وَ تَسْتَغْفِرُ وَ تَرْفَعُ يَدَيْكَ فِي اَلْوَتْرِ حِيَالَ وَجْهِكَ وَ إِنْ شِئْتَ فَتَحْتَ ثَوْبَكَ.
Hadith.1407 - It is narrated from ‘Abdullah ibn Sinan that Abu ‘Abdullah (Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "You may supplicate against the enemy during the Witr prayer, and if you wish, you may name them specifically.

1408 - وَ كَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ سَيِّدُ اَلْعَابِدِينَ يَقُولُ: «اَلْعَفْوَ اَلْعَفْوَ» ثَلاَثَمِائَةِ مَرَّةٍ فِي اَلْوَتْرِ فِي اَلسَّحَرِ.

Hadith.1409 - It is narrated by Ma'ruf ibn Kharbudh from one of them, meaning Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) and Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as): "Recite in the Qunoot of Witr: 'There is no god but Allah (swt), the Forbearing, the Generous. There is no god but Allah (swt), the Most High, the Mighty. Glory be to Allah (swt), the Lord (azj) of the seven heavens and the seven earths, and whatever is within them and between them, and the Lord (azj) of the Great Throne. O’ Allah (swt), You are the Light of the heavens and the earth. You are Allah (swt), the Ornament of the heavens and the earth. You are Allah (swt), the Beauty of the heavens and the earth. You are Allah (swt), the Pillar of the heavens and the earth. You are Allah (swt), the Sustainer of the heavens and the earth. You are Allah (swt), the Helper of those who cry for help. You are Allah (swt), the Reliever of the distressed. You are Allah (swt), the One who answers the prayer of the distressed. You are Allah (swt), the God of the worlds. You are Allah (swt), the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. You are Allah (swt), the Remover of hardship. You are Allah (swt); with You every need is resolved. O’ Allah (swt), nothing repels Your anger except Your forbearance. Nothing delivers from Your punishment except Your mercy, and nothing can rescue me from You except pleading with You. So grant me, O’ my God, mercy from You that suffices me from the mercy of any other than You, by the power through which You revived all in the lands and by which You revive the dead among Your servants. Do not destroy me with anguish until You forgive me, have mercy on me, and make known to me the response to my supplication. Grant me well-being until the end of my life. Overlook my missteps, do not let my enemies gloat over me, and do not grant them control over me. O’ Allah (swt), if You elevate me, who can bring me down? If You bring me down, who can elevate me? If You destroy me, who can intervene between You and me or interfere in any matter of mine? I know that there is no injustice in Your rule and no haste in Your punishment. The one who rushes is he who fears loss, and only the weak resort to injustice. You are far above all of this, my God. So do not make me a target for affliction, nor a subject for Your wrath. Grant me respite, relieve me, forgive my faults, and do not follow one trial with another. You see my weakness and lack of resources. I seek refuge with You this night, so protect me. I seek Your protection from the Fire, so protect me. I ask You for Paradise, so do not deny it to me.' Then call upon Allah (swt) with whatever you wish and seek His forgiveness seventy times."
1410 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ اَلثُّمَالِيِّ قَالَ: كَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ فِي آخِرِ وَتْرِهِ وَ هُوَ قَائِمٌ « رَبِّ أَسَأْتُ وَ ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي وَ بِئْسَ مَا صَنَعْتُ وَ هَذِهِ يَدَايَ جَزَاءً بِمَا صَنَعَتَا » قَالَ ثُمَّ يَبْسُطُ يَدَيْهِ جَمِيعاً قُدَّامَ وَجْهِهِ وَ يَقُولُ: « وَ هَذِهِ رَقَبَتِي خَاضِعَةٌ لَكَ لِمَا أَتَتْ » قَالَ ثُمَّ يُطَأْطِئُ رَأْسَهُ وَ يَخْضَعُ بِرَقَبَتِهِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: « وَ هَا أَنَا ذَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ فَخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ اَلرِّضَا مِنْ نَفْسِي حَتَّى تَرْضَى لَكَ اَلْعُتْبَى لاَ أَعُودُ لاَ أَعُودُ لاَ أَعُودُ » قَالَ وَ كَانَ وَ اَللَّهِ إِذَا قَالَ «لاَ أَعُودُ» لَمْ يَعُدْ.
Hadith.1410 - It is narrated by Abu Hamzah al-Thumali that Imam Ali ibn al-Hussain (as) would say in the last part of his Witr prayer while standing: Rabbi as’atu wa zhalamtu nafsi wa bi’sa ma sana‘tu wa hadhihi yadayya jaza’an bima sana‘ata "My Lord (azj), I have committed wrongs and wronged myself, and what a terrible thing I have done. Here are my hands as recompense for what they have done." Then he would raise both his hands before his face and say: Wa hadhihi raqabati khadi‘atun laka lima atat "And here is my neck, humbled before You for what it has done." He would then bow his head and humble his neck and continue: Wa ha ana dha bayna yadayka fakhudh linafsika ar-rida min nafsi hatta tarda. Laka al-‘utba, la a‘ood, la a‘ood, la a‘ood "Here I am before You; take from my soul the satisfaction that pleases You until You are content. To You belongs all repentance. I will not return, I will not return, I will not return [to sin]." It is reported that by Allah (swt), when He said: "I will not return," he never returned [to the sin].
1411 - وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنِ اَلصَّادِقِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «اَلْقُنُوتُ فِي اَلْوَتْرِ اِسْتِغْفَارٌ وَ فِي اَلْفَرِيضَةِ اَلدُّعَاءُ.
Hadith.1411 - It is narrated by Abdur-Rahman ibn Abi Abdullah from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) that He said: "The Qunoot (supplication) in the Witr prayer is for seeking forgiveness, while in the obligatory (prayers) it is for supplication (general prayers)”.

Hadith.1412 - The Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) would supplicate in the Qunoot of Witr with this supplication: "O’ Allah (swt), You created me with precise measurement, arrangement, and foresight without any negligence. You brought me out of 'three layers of darkness' by Your strength and power. I attempt to engage with this world, then I turn away from it, and then I leave it behind. You provided me with sustenance and care in it and guided me within it, so blessed is the Lord (azj) and excellent is the Master. O’ the One who honored and elevated me and bestowed upon me Your bounties, I seek refuge in You from the tree of Zaqqum, I seek refuge in You from boiling water (al-Hameem), and I seek refuge in You from a resting place in the Fire, amidst the layers of the Fire, under the shadows of the Fire on the Day of Fire. O’ Lord (azj) of the Fire! O’ Allah (swt), I ask You for a place to rest in Paradise among its rivers, trees, fruits, sweet scents, attendants, and spouses. O’ Allah (swt), I ask You for the best of all good—Your pleasure and Paradise, and I seek refuge in You from the worst of all evil—Your wrath and the Fire. This is the station of one seeking refuge in You from the Fire." (He would repeat this three times). "O’ Allah (swt), place Your fear throughout my body and make my heart fear You more intensely than it does now. Grant me, in every day and night, a share and portion of deeds dedicated to Your obedience and seeking Your pleasure. O’ Allah (swt), You are the ultimate aim of my efforts, my hope, my requests, and my needs. I ask You, O’ my God, for perfect faith, complete certainty, sincere reliance upon You, and a good opinion of You, my Master. Multiply my good deeds, make my prayers an expression of humility, accept my supplications, approve of my actions, thank my efforts, forgive my sins, and grant me 'radiance and joy' from You. May Allah (swt) bless Muhammad and his family."

Hadith.1417 - It is narrated from Abu Walad Hafs bin Salim Al-Hannat that He said: "I heard Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) say, 'There is no harm if a person prays two units (rak‘ahs) of Witr prayer, then turns away to fulfil a need, and then returns to pray one unit (rak‘ah).'".
1418 - وَ سَأَلَ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلْقُنُوتِ فِي اَلْوَتْرِ قَالَ «قَبْلَ اَلرُّكُوعِ» قَالَ فَإِنْ نَسِيتُ أَقْنُتُ إِذَا رَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي فَقَالَ «لاَ.
Hadith.1418 - Mu'awiya bin Ammar asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) bout the position of Qunoot (supplication) in the Witr prayer. Imam (as) said: "It is done before the bowing (ruku‘)." Mu'awiya then asked: "What if I forget it?" Abu Abdullah (as) replied: "No (do not perform it after lifting your head from bowing)."
1419 - وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «صَلِّ رَكْعَتَيِ اَلْفَجْرِ قَبْلَ اَلْفَجْرِ وَ عِنْدَهُ وَ بُعَيْدَهُ تَقْرَأُ فِي اَلْأُولَى اَلْحَمْدَ وَ «قُلْ يٰا أَيُّهَا اَلْكٰافِرُونَ» وَ فِي اَلثَّانِيَةِ اَلْحَمْدَ وَ «قُلْ هُوَ اَللّٰهُ أَحَدٌ».
Hadith.1419 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "Pray the two rak'ahs of Fajr (supererogatory prayer) before Fajr, at its time, or shortly thereafter. In the first rak'ah, recite Surah Al-Fatiha and ‘Qul ya-ayyuhal kafirun’ (Surah al-Kafirun), In the second rak'ah, recite Al-Hamd and 'Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad' (Surah Al-Ikhlas)."
1420 - فَقَدْ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «أَيُّ قَطْعٍ أَقْطَعُ مِنَ اَلتَّسْلِيمِ.
Hadith.1420 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "What ending is more complete than the Tasleem (salutation)?"
1421 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ اَلْأَعْرَجِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ إِنِّي أَكُونُ فِي اَلْوَتْرِ وَ أَكُونُ قَدْ نَوَيْتُ اَلصَّوْمَ وَ أَكُونُ فِي اَلدُّعَاءِ وَ أَخَافُ اَلْفَجْرَ وَ أَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَقْطَعَ عَلَى نَفْسِي اَلدُّعَاءَ وَ أَشْرَبَ اَلْمَاءَ وَ تَكُونُ اَلْقُلَّةُ أَمَامِي قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي «فَاخْطُ إِلَيْهَا اَلْخُطْوَةَ وَ اَلْخُطْوَتَيْنِ وَ اَلثَّلاَثَ وَ اِشْرَبْ وَ اِرْجِعْ إِلَى مَكَانِكَ وَ لاَ تَقْطَعْ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ اَلدُّعَاءَ.
Hadith.1421 - It is narrated from Sa'id al-A'raj that He said: I said to Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) "May I be your ransom, sometimes I am in the Witr prayer and have already intended to fast. I am engaged in supplication and I fear the approach of dawn, but I dislike interrupting my supplication to drink water, and there is a water jug in front of me." Imam (as) said to me: "Take a step, two, or three towards it, drink, and then return to your place without interrupting your supplication."
1422 - وَ رَوَى زُرَارَةُ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «إِذَا أَنْتَ اِنْصَرَفْتَ مِنَ اَلْوَتْرِ فَقُلْ: سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ اَلْمَلِكِ اَلْقُدُّوسِ اَلْعَزِيزِ اَلْحَكِيمِ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ تَقُولُ يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّومُ يَا بَرُّ يَا رَحِيمُ يَا غَنِيُّ يَا كَرِيمُ اُرْزُقْنِي مِنَ اَلتِّجَارَةِ أَعْظَمَهَا فَضْلاً وَ أَوْسَعَهَا رِزْقاً وَ خَيْرَهَا لِي عَاقِبَةً فَإِنَّهُ لاَ خَيْرَ فِيمَا لاَ عَاقِبَةَ لَهُ.
Hadith.1422 - Zurarah narrated from Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) that He said: "When you finish the Witr prayer, say: Subḥāna Rabbīya al-Maliki al-Quddūsi al-‘Azīzi al-Ḥakīm 'Glory be to my Lord (azj), the Sovereign, the Holy, the Mighty, the Wise,' three times. Then say: Yā Ḥayy, Yā Qayyūm, Yā Barr, Yā Raḥīm, Yā Ghanī, Yā Karīm, urzuqnī mina at-tijārah a‘ẓamahā faḍlan wa awsa‘ahā rizqan wa khayrahā lī ‘āqibatan fa-innahu lā khayra fīmā lā ‘āqibata lahu 'O’ Ever-Living, O’ Self-Subsisting, O’ Beneficent, O’ Merciful, O’ Rich, O’ Generous, provide me with the best and most profitable trade, the widest provision, and the best outcome for me, for there is no goodness in anything that does not have a favorable end.'"
