The ruling on completing the witr prayer if the Fajr adhan is called during it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If I am praying the witr and the Fajr adhan is called during my witr prayer, have I caught its time?

Answer:
Yes, complete it, but make it brief. The Fajr adhan varies among people; some hasten the adhan. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Bilal calls the Adhan during the night, so eat and drink until Ibn Umm Maktum calls (the Adhan)إن بلالا يؤذن بليل كلوا واشربوا كيؤذن ابن أم مكتوم
Sunan an-Nasa'i 637Sahih (Darussalam)
The callers to prayer differ regarding the Fajr. Yes.
