Surah Abasa(80:33)
Sahih al-Bukhari
Witr Prayer
Chapter: The timing of the Salat-ul-Witr (Witr prayer)
Narrated Anas bin Seereen:
I asked Ibn `Umar, "What is your opinion about the two rak`at before the Fajr (compulsory) prayer, as to prolonging the recitation in them?" He said, "The Prophet (ﷺ) used to pray at night two rak`at followed by two and so on, and end the prayer by one rak`ah witr. He used to offer two rak`at before the Fajr prayer immediately after the Adhan." (Hammad, the sub-narrator said, "That meant (that he prayed) quickly.)"
