The Ruling on Beautifying the Voice in the Qunut Supplication of Witr
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on beautifying the voice in the qunut supplication of witr, without exaggeration or dragging out the sounds, given that some students have been confused by the claim that this is a bid'ah (religious innovation) and that there is no evidence for it?
Answer:
There are people who look for faults and mistake people, and they only make mistakes about people. These are matters in which one should be lenient and tolerant; they do not require denunciation, enmity, or people whose job is to pick out errors they imagine are errors. My brothers, leave these matters alone. As long as you do not see a munkar (what is wrong) or a bid'ah (religious innovation), leave these easy matters alone. The voice, praise be to Allah, let the voice remain as it is. Yes.
