Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner from outside the country says: In my country, some imams do not raise their voices with the qunut; rather, they recite it quietly. Is this permissible?
Answer:
This is contrary to the Sunnah. This is contrary to the Sunnah. Unless a person is praying alone. He recites the supplication quietly. But if he is an imam, he must be heard by those behind him. So that they may say "Ameen" to his supplication, whether it is said quietly or otherwise. Yes.
