Chapter on the Merit of Prayer, and What is Obligatory and Recommended from It

فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« اَلْوَتْرُ فِي كِتَابِ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَاجِبٌ وَ هُوَ وَتْرُ اَللَّيْلِ وَ اَلْمَغْرِبُ وَتْرُ اَلنَّهَارِ»
As for what was narrated by Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya from Muhammad ibn Al-Husayn from Ja‘far ibn Bashir from ‘Ubayd from his father: Abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: “The witr prayer is recorded in the Book of (Imam) Ali عليه السلام, peace be upon him, as obligatory (wajib); it is the witr of the night, and the Maghrib prayer is the witr of the day.”
