Summary
Tarawih and Witir prayers may be made up at another time if they were missed or there was not enough time to perform them at their proper time. This follows the Shafi'i school, which recommends making up timed voluntary prayers (muaqqat) once their time has passed. Tarawih and Witir are counted among voluntary prayers with their own specific times.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Solat sunat Tarawih dan solat sunat Witir boleh diqada pada waktu yang lain sekiranya tertinggal dan tidak sempat dilakukan pada waktunya.
