مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ اَلْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مَعْرُوفٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُذَافِرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَ: فِيمَنِ اِنْصَرَفَ فِي اَلرَّكْعَةِ اَلثَّانِيَةِ مِنَ اَلْوَتْرِ هَلْ يَجُوزُ لَهُ أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ أَوْ يَخْرُجَ مِنَ اَلْمَسْجِدِ ثُمَّ يَعُودَ فَيُوتِرَ قَالَ« نَعَمْ تَصْنَعُ مَا تَشَاءُ وَ تَتَكَلَّمُ وَ تُحْدِثُ وُضُوءَكَ ثُمَّ تُتِمُّهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ اَلْغَدَاةَ»
Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahbub, from al-‘Abbas ibn Ma‘ruf, from Muhammad ibn Isma‘il ibn Bazi‘, from Muhammad ibn ‘Udhafir, from ‘Umar ibn Yazid:
Abu Abdillah عليه السلام (was asked) regarding someone who leaves after the second rak‘ah of the witr, whether it is permissible for him to speak or leave the mosque and then return to complete the witr. Imam عليه السلام said: “Yes, you may do as you wish, you may speak, perform wudu again, and then complete it before you pray the morning (Fajr) prayer.”
