O Shaykh, whoever sleeps through a prayer or forgets it, let him pray it when he remembers it; does this include the witr?

The questioner : O Shaykh, ; does this include the witr?

The Shaykh : Ahmad’s narration from Jabir... this narration is a corroborating report for the hadith of Anas ibn Malik, and it is in the sound chain and in "Musnad al-Imam Ahmad"; that is, by the narration of Ibn Lahi'ah, which, if it stands alone, is weak, but a corroborating report with a sound chain from Anas ibn Malik has been found for it. I have delved deeply here into the jurisprudential benefit regarding a concise text... Makkah, I said: and likewise Madinah, as came in some hadiths I referred to, which are established in "Al-Silsilah al-Sahihah," then in volume five... or six, which is... So the point is, I actually see what I said as complete; that whoever finds in himself energy and aptitude for scientific research into the Prophetic hadith, in terms of authenticating and weakening it, must first be knowledgeable of the Arabic language, and have an aptitude for knowing the jurisprudence of hadith and its implications; because this helps him greatly in agreeing that a hadith—for example—is preserved or anomalous, or that it is denounced. Therefore, he must have inclinations... and I have seen this.The Shaykh : 'Abdullah—may Allah have mercy on him—did not have anything but a vast memory... and I certainly benefit from this, but the first thing that stands out to me when a person criticizes another is that he criticizes a person whose fathers testify to him before his loved ones; because he has a standing in this field. So my tendency to criticize these young students of hadith does not realize a general benefit, by consensus, but rather harms himself before he realizes... in this knowledge, as we said this morning, and there is no need to repeat the speech on that.
