Sunan Ibn Majah 1188 (Book 5, Hadith 386) #30540
Praying Witr After Forgetting or Sleeping Through It

SUMMARY: It is permissible to pray Witr if one has forgotten or slept through it.

It was narrated that Abu Sa’eed said: "The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever sleeps and misses Witr, or forgets it, let him pray it when morning comes, or when he remembers.’"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُصْعَبٍ، أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْمَدِينِيُّ وَسُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ ‏ "‏ مَنْ نَامَ عَنِ الْوِتْرِ أَوْ نَسِيَهُ، فَلْيُصَلِّ إِذَا أَصْبَحَ، أَوْ ذَكَرَهُ

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Abu Saeed states that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that if someone forgets to pray their witr prayer, or falls asleep and misses it, they can still make up for it when they wake up in the morning or when they remember. This shows us how important forgiveness and remembrance are in Islam. Allah is always willing to forgive us for our mistakes and forgetfulness as long as we remember Him and strive to do better next time. This hadith also teaches us about the importance of prayer in Islam; even if we forget a prayer, we should still make an effort to perform it whenever possible.
