أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَالْوِتْرُ لَيْسَ بِحَتْمٍ كَهَيْئَةِ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ وَلَكِنَّهُ سُنَّةٌ سَنَّهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

Telah mengabarkan kepadaku [Muhammad bin Isma'il bin Ibrahim] dari [Abu Nu'aim] dari [Sufyan] dari [Abu Ishaq] dari ['Ashim bin Dhamrah] dari ['Ali radliallahu 'anhu] dia berkata; "Shalat witir tidak harus seperti shalat wajib, tetapi witir adalah sunnah yang disunnahkan oleh Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam."
About Sunan an-Nasa'i
Born
215 AH / 829 CE — Nasa, Turkmenistan
Died
303 AH / 915 CE
Imam an-Nasa'i applied the strictest conditions of all Sunan compilers. He first wrote a larger collection (as-Sunan al-Kubra) then condensed it into al-Mujtaba. He was particularly rigorous in identifying weaknesses in narrator chains, resulting in a collection of very high reliability.
An-Nasa'i's conditions for accepting narrators were stricter than those of Abu Dawud and at-Tirmidhi, making al-Mujtaba one of the most critically refined of the Sunan collections.
