Is it considered standing in night prayer if one performs witr with three rak'ahs or one rak'ah when time is tight or the adhan for the Fajr prayer has been called?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I wake up half an hour before the Fajr prayer. Yes, I wake up half an hour before the Fajr prayer and pray what Allah has written for me, then I perform witr with three rak'ahs. On some days, I wake up and there are only five minutes left until the adhan, so I perform witr with three rak'ahs. On some days, I perform witr with one rak'ah during the time of the adhan. Is this action correct, and is this witr considered standing in night prayer if one of us limits himself to it?

Answer:
This is the minimum for standing in night prayer. The least amount is standing in night prayer. If time is tight and you fear that the dawn will break, you perform witr with one rak'ah. If there is ample time, you increase; the minimum of perfection is three rak'ahs, and the maximum is eleven or thirteen rak'ahs. As for if the adhan has been called according to the timing, you do not perform witr, because the time has passed; the time for witr has ended. So you make it up during the day as the Duha prayer, making it an even number. Yes.
