Witr for the one who did not catch the night prayer and its making up

The questioner:
Is it permissible to omit the night prayer for one who did not catch the standing prayer, and only managed to perform the witr with one rak'ah before the dawn, knowing that his habit is to pray the night with the witr for seven rak'ahs or more or less?

The Shaykh:
Yes, the witr should not be left before the dawn, even if it is just one rak'ah. And if it is his habit to pray whatever he can of the night standing before the witr, that is better and more complete, and he concludes it with the witr prayer. And his saying (peace and blessings be upon him) , so if he fears that the dawn will catch him, let him leave it; he has prayed. But if he gets up late and does not catch anything but the witr, he performs the witr, even with one rak'ah, and he is credited with the reward of what he used to pray previously if he left it due to forgetfulness or because of sleep, for he is credited with what he intended, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed about that.

The questioner:
Is it made up? May Allah bless you.

The Shaykh:
The witr is made up during the day, between the rising of the sun and its zenith. He makes it up in this time, but he does not make it a witr; rather, he makes it an even number. Yes.
