The worshiper should prioritize the obligatory prayer if the is called and they have not yet prayed the Shafa and Witr or the of Fajr. The missed Witr prayer can be made up at any hour of the day or night, without needing to be prayed in order with the missed Sunnah of Fajr. According to the Shafi'is, the Sunnah of Fajr can be made up at any time. According to the Malikis, it can be made up after the sun has risen to the height of a spear until zawal (midday). The Hanafis have different opinions regarding its make-up.
