One who sleeps through the witr until the Fajr adhan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person sleeps and does not pray the witr until the mu'adhdhin calls the adhan for the Fajr prayer, what is required of him?

Answer:
He has missed the witr. When the dawn breaks, he has missed the witr. He makes it up after the sun has risen and pairs it. He prays the witr with three rak'ahs by praying four rak'ahs with two taslims. He prays the witr with five rak'ahs by praying six rak'ahs with three taslims, and so on.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
