Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: In the statement of the author (may Allah have mercy on him), “And if sleep or pain overtook him, he would pray three rak'ahs during the day.” The question is: Does he distribute these rak'ahs throughout the hours of the day, or does he pray them consecutively in one time?

Answer:
He does not distribute them throughout the hours of the day. He prays them between the rising of the sun and its standing in the middle of the sky. This is the time for making up the witr. Yes.
