وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى وَ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ قَالَ لِي: «اِقْرَأْ فِي اَلْوَتْرِ فِي ثَلاَثَتِهِنَّ بِ«قُلْ هُوَ اَللّٰهُ أَحَدٌ» وَ سَلِّمْ فِي اَلرَّكْعَتَيْنِ تُوقِظُ اَلرَّاقِدَ وَ تَأْمُرُ بِالصَّلاَةِ»
And from him, from Hammad ibn Isa and Fadalah, from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar. He said: Imam عليه السلام said to me: “Recite in the witr, in all three rak‘ahs, ‘Surah Al Ikhlas’, and perform taslim in the two rak‘ahs. Wake the one who is asleep and command (them) to pray.”
