The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Is the lengthening of the qunut and supplication that is currently done in some mosques on the day of completing the Qur'an from the practice of the Salaf and the Sunnah?
The Shaykh:
Does it burden the ma'mum? It is not from the Sunnah, even the recitation of the Qur'an, if it burdens the ma'mum. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) rebuked Mu'adh when he recited Surat al-Baqarah in the 'Isha' prayer. He rebuked him and said:Sahih Ibn Hibban 10:696 He said: So he should lighten the recitation of the Qur'an, lighten the supplication, and lighten it, taking into account the conditions of the ma'mum. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
And he prayed for himself, lengthening it as much as he wished, as in the hadith. Yes.
