عبداللہ بن ابی قیس کہتے ہیں میں نے ام المؤمنین عائشہ رضی اللہ عنہا سے پوچھا: رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم وتر کتنی رکعتیں پڑھتے تھے؟ انہوں نے جواب دیا: کبھی چار اور تین، کبھی چھ اور تین، کبھی آٹھ اور تین اور کبھی دس اور تین، کبھی بھی آپ وتر میں سات سے کم اور تیرہ سے زائد رکعتیں نہیں پڑھتے تھے۔ ابوداؤد کہتے ہیں: احمد بن صالح نے اضافہ کیا ہے کہ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم فجر سے پہلے کی رکعتوں کو وتر نہیں کرتے تھے، میں نے پوچھا: انہیں وتر کرنے کا کیا مطلب؟ تو وہ بولیں: انہیں نہیں چھوڑتے تھے اور احمد نے چھ اور تین کا ذکر نہیں کیا ہے۔
