Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If a person performs witr at the beginning of the night and gets up at the end of it intending to pray, what does he do? Does he perform witr twice?
Answer:
No, the correct view is that he gets up and prays whatever is easy for him, and he is content with the first witr, so he does not repeat it; the first witr is sufficient. It is permissible to pray after witr, and it is reported in the Sunnah that one prays after witr.
