Qunut for the Chechens in every prayer and attributing the fatwa to the Shaykh
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The imam of a mosque in Riyadh has been reciting qunut for the Chechens for a year and has never stopped doing so in the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers. He mentions that you issued a fatwa to him on this matter, so I ask for clarification.
Answer:
A liar. I did not err on this point, I do not say this. I say that it is not to be recited except by the imam’s permission, based on a fatwa from the scholars. If things are like this, meaning things are in chaos, things must be made difficult. The one who says I erred and am a liar, yes.
