muwatta_malik:271وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ كَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ، فِرَاشَهُ أَوْتَرَ وَكَانَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ يُوتِرُ آخِرَ اللَّيْلِ قَالَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ فَأَمَّا أَنَا فَإِذَا جِئْتُ فِرَاشِي أَوْتَرْتُ .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Said ibn al-Musayyab said, "Abu Bakr as-Siddiq used to pray witr when he wished to go to bed, and Umar ibn al-Khattab used to pray witr at the end of the night. As for me, I pray witr when I go to bed."
