The ruling on making up the witr prayer after Fajr

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, is it valid to make up the witr prayer after Fajr?

Answer:
It is valid after the sun has risen. It is prescribed to make it up after the sun has risen, along with an even number of rak'ahs. If he usually prays witr with three rak'ahs, he makes it four rak'ahs with two taslims. Likewise, he makes it up during the day and adds an even number to it, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do. If he missed the witr at night, he would make it up during the day along with an even number. Yes.
