What is your advice for an imam who is forced to recite the qunut supplication, or else he is prevented from leading the prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I lead the Fajr prayer in my country, and they force me to recite the qunut supplication, or else I am prevented from leading the prayer. What do you advise me to do?

Answer:
We advise you not to commit to leading the prayer. They are forcing you to do a bid'ah (religious innovation); do not commit to it. Leave it, leave leading the prayer, or seek a mosque where there is no bid'ah of the qunut.
