وَعَنْهُ عَنِ اَلنَّضْرِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي وَلاَّدٍ حَفْصِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلتَّسْلِيمِ فِي اَلرَّكْعَتَيْنِ فِي اَلْوَتْرِ فَقَالَ« نَعَمْ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَكَ حَاجَةٌ فَاخْرُجْ وَ اِقْضِهَا ثُمَّ عُدْ فَارْكَعْ رَكْعَةً»
And from him, from al-Nadr, from Muhammad ibn Abi Hamzah, from Abu Walad Hafs ibn Salim. He said:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, about the taslim (salutation) in the two rak‘ahs of the witr. Imam عليه السلام said: “Yes. And if you have a need, then go out and take care of it, then return and perform one rak‘ah.”
