What is the ruling on reciting the du’aa’ of Qunoot every night after Witr?.
Praise be to Allaah.
There is nothing wrong with that. The du’aa’ of Qunoot is Sunnah and the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to recite Qunoot. He taught Qunootand the words of Qunoot in Witr to al-Hasan, so it isSunnah. If you recite it every night, there is nothing wrong with that, and if you omit it on some occasions so that the people will know thatit is not obligatory, there is nothing wrong with that either. If the imam omits Qunoot on some occasions so that the people will know that is not obligatory, there is nothing wrong with that. When the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) taughtal-Hasan Qunoot, he did not tell him to omit it on some days. This indicates that if he does it persistently, there is nothing wrong with that.
