Hadith #48485
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قِيلَ لَهُ: هَلْ لَكَ فِي أَمِير الْمُؤمنِينَ مُعَاوِيَة فَإِنَّهُ مَا أَوْتَرَ إِلَّا بِوَاحِدَةٍ؟ قَالَ: أَصَابَ إِنَّهُ فَقِيهٌ
وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ: قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ: أَوْتَرَ مُعَاوِيَةُ بَعْدَ الْعِشَاءِ بِرَكْعَةٍ وَعِنْدَهُ مَوْلًى لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَأَتَى ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ: دَعْهُ فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ صَحِبَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ
On the authority of Ibn Abbas, it was said to him: Do you have anything to say about the Commander of the Faithful, Muawiyah, for he has not performed the Witr prayer except with one? He said: It is correct that he is a jurist, and in a narration: Ibn Abi Mulaika said: Muawiyah performed the witr prayer with a rak’ah after the evening prayer while he was with a servant of Ibn Abbas. Then Ibn Abbas came and told him, and he said: Leave him. He accompanied the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. Narrated by Al-Bukhari
