Summary
The view that forbids other voluntary prayers after witr with the imam is considered less accurate. A person may perform other voluntary prayers after praying witr with the imam and does not need to repeat the witr. This is the view of most Hanafi, Maliki and Hanbali scholars and the well-known view in the Shafii school. Remaining with the imam until the prayer ends is preferred, as it earns the reward of spending the whole night in prayer.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Oleh itu, pendapat yang mengatakan tidak boleh melakukan solat sunat lain setelah melakukan solat witir kurang tepat dan yang sebenarnya, boleh untuk melakukan solat sunat yang lainnya meskipun telah melakukan solat sunat witir bersama-sama imam dan tidak perlu untuk mengulangi solat witir tersebut
