"Witr can be done in 13, 11, 9, 7, 5, 3, or one bow but preferably 3 rakas at least, with two greetings (salam). It may also be performed in twos with salutations at the close of every couple of bows followed by one kneeling down at the end, the reading of the tasyahud) and finally the salam. it is advisable to carry out the prescribed acts in praying the witr, without sticking to any particular sect (Mazhab) of the four great Schools as each of them sought the right system of the Sunna of our holy Apostle (peace be upon him) from which the true enlightenment emananted for all members of the body of Islam without discrimination.
