The ruling on making up the witr prayer for one who missed it at night
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If one misses the witr prayer at night, is it permissible for him to make it up immediately after the Fajr prayer?
The Shaykh:
No, after the sun has risen. Yes.
The questioner:
And he asks: Does he make it up as three rak'ahs or four?
The Shaykh:
He makes it up according to his usual witr. If he usually prays witr with three, he makes it up as four. If he usually prays witr with five, he makes it six, and so on, making it an even number.
The presenter:
That is the end.
The Shaykh:
And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
