How to make up the Witr prayer and the fact that the Duha prayer is not considered in making up the Witr
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The honorable Shaykh! If a person misses the Witr prayer at night and wants to make it up during the day in the Duha time, does he include the two rak'ahs of Duha with it? And regarding the recitation of (Say: He is Allah, the One), does he place it in the last rak'ah or the one before it, the odd one?
If a person misses the Witr prayer, he makes it up during the day, but in pairs. If his custom is to pray Witr with three, he makes up four. And if his custom is to pray Witr with five, he makes up six, based on the hadith of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her): (That the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) used to pray twelve rak'ahs during the day if he missed the night prayer due to sleep or illness).
As for what he recites, the most likely view is that he places (Say: He is Allah, the One) in the last rak'ah. As for whether it replaces the two rak'ahs of Duha, it does not; because the two rak'ahs of Duha are an independent recommended practice, so they must be performed on their own.
