Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If my habit is to pray eleven rak'ahs at night, and then I wake up a little before the Fajr adhan, and I pray one rak'ah, do I pray ten rak'ahs during the day?

Answer:
No, as long as you have performed the witr with the minimum of one rak'ah, as long as you have performed the witr, that is sufficient. But if you want to pray the Duha prayer, that is a good thing; you pray the Duha prayer. Yes.
