Why is Witr read in jamaat in Ramadhaan and not other times?
Question
And why is Witr read aloud in Ramadhaan?
Answer
The Witr Salaat in Jamaat succeeds/follows the Taraweeh Salaat in Jamaat, hence, it is restricted to the month of Ramadhaan only. (Ahsanul Fatawa vol.3 pg.455)
This is possibly the same reason why it is performed aloud.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
