Question:
What is the ruling on melodizing in the du'a of qunut and exerting effort in it?
Answer:
Melodizing and arranging the du'a is not prescribed. This may occupy a person from being present in heart in his du'a, turning his attention to improving his voice and other vocal embellishments, and distracting him from being present in heart in his du'a. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that du'a is not answered from a heedless, distracted heart. It is only the Qur'an that is recited with measured recitation (tartil); du'a is not recited with tartil, nor is it recited with tajwid as some people do. Yes.
