Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: We are in Malaysia, and we pray behind an imam who always recites the qunut in the Fajr prayer. The question is: Are we required to raise our hands during the qunut and say "Ameen" to his supplication, or not?

Answer:
Yes, follow the imam. If he recites the qunut, recite it with him. Even if you do not consider the qunut to be prescribed, as long as the imam considers it so, follow him and recite the qunut with him, and raise your hands.
