فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اَلنَّضْرِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلتَّسْلِيمِ فِي رَكْعَتَيِ اَلْوَتْرِ فَقَالَ« إِنْ شِئْتَ سَلَّمْتَ وَ إِنْ شِئْتَ لَمْ تُسَلِّمْ»
As for what was narrated by al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id, from al-Nadr, from Muhammad ibn Abi Hamzah, from Ya‘qub ibn Shu‘ayb. He said:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام about the taslim (salutation) in the two rak‘ahs of the witr. Imam عليه السلام said: “If you wish, you may say the taslim, and if you wish, you may omit it.”
