اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ مَوْلًى لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ قَالَ:« رَكْعَتَا اَلْوَتْرِ إِنْ شَاءَ تَكَلَّمَ بَيْنَهُمَا وَ بَيْنَ اَلثَّالِثَةِ وَ إِنْ شَاءَ لَمْ يَفْصِلْ»
Al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id, from Safwan, from Mansur, from a servant of Abu Ja‘far, peace be upon him. He said: Imam عليه السلام said: “The two rak‘ahs of the witr, if he wishes, he may speak between them and the third rak‘ah, and if he wishes, he may not separate them.”
