Salaah

Q: If a person who has not yet prayed witr, prays Fajr, is his Fajr prayer valid?

Q: In the witr prayer, if a person has a doubt as to whether they are performing the first rakat or the second rakat and this doubt occurs quite often and because their heart is not inclined towards either rakat that person chooses the lesser number and performs the first rakat along with the tashahhud because it is possible that this could be the second rakat. In the second rakat does this person have to recite the qunoot because it is possible that this could be the third rakat? In the third rakat, does this person have to recite the qunoot again along with prostration of forgetfulness.

2. In a fard prayer or in a wajib prayer, if two surahs have the same number of verses but not the same number of words then would it be makrooh tahreemi, makrooh tanzeehi, or permissible to recite the surah which has less words in the first rakat and to recite the surah which has more words in the second rakat?
