The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Some imams, in the supplication of qunut during Ramadan, make this supplication and say, “O Lord of the Qur’an.” He asks: Is this supplication valid? And what is the advice regarding it?
The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible to say “O Lord of the Qur’an.” The Qur’an is created. The term “Lord” applies to both the created and the Creator, between the created and the Creator. One does not say “Lord of the Qur’an.” Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
The Qur’an is the speech of Allah. Yes.
