The Ruling on Performing Witr After the Adhan of Fajr
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is it permissible to perform the rak'ah of witr after the adhan of Fajr and before the iqamah?
It is not permissible;Because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (If one of you fears the dawn, let him pray one rak'ah and make his prayer odd, then let him pray) This indicates that there is no witr after Fajr. But what should one do if sleep overtook him?We say: If the time of Duha has arrived, perform witr as an even number; so if it is your habit to pray witr as three rak'ahs, make it four. Because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when sleep or pain overtook him, would pray twelve rak'ahs during the day. So take the greater amount and pray twelve rak'ahs.
And with this, this session ends. May Allah benefit us and you with what He has taught us.
