The Effect of Lengthening the Supplication in Qunut on the Rak'ah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: Does lengthening the supplication in qunut invalidate the rak'ah?
The Shaykh:
No, it does not invalidate the rak'ah. However, if it is difficult for the people, it is not permissible. The one who does it commits a sin, but it does not invalidate the rak'ah. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh:
(may Allah be pleased with him) when he lengthened the prayer and recited Surat al-Baqarah in the 'Isha' prayer, prolonging it for the people, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not order him to repeat the prayer. Rather, he rebuked him and scolded him, but he did not order him to repeat it. He said to him:Sahih Ibn Hibban 10:696? And he said: and he did not order them to repeat the prayer.

Are you a trial, O Mu'adh?
افتان انت يا معاذAmong you are those who drive people away. Whoever leads the people in prayer should shorten it, for among them are the old, the weak, and those in need.
