If one misses the witr prayer, he makes it up during the day as an even number

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
ً

His Eminence the Shaykh: If the mu'adhdhin calls the Fajr adhan and I have not prayed witr, should I pray a single rak'ah during the adhan, or should I pray the even number, or wait until the sun rises?
If the adhan is called and you are in the middle of witr, complete it.

The questioner: Before I say the takbir for witr?The Shaykh: If the adhan is called before you say the takbir, and he is calling for the certain dawn, then the time has passed, and you make it up during the day, as Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: (The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when sleep or illness overtook him, would pray twelve rak'ahs during the day).
