Question

If the prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) missed the Witr prayer, then I have read somewhere, he prayed four rakaats the following day. Can you shed some light on this please?

Answer

We have not come across this in the authentic books of Hadith.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
