The ruling on qunut in the second rak'ah of the Maghrib prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Or something happens. I prayed behind the imam for the Maghrib prayer. In the second rak'ah, the third… the imam came to the supplication in the tashahhud regarding this permissible act.
Answer:
In the second rak'ah? No, this is permissible. The qunut is not to be in the second rak'ah; rather, the qunut is in the last rak'ah. It is in the last rak'ah after the ruku' and before the sujud. This is the place of the prescribed qunut in the obligatory prayer. In the voluntary prayer, it is in the last rak'ah before the sujud and after the ruku'. If it is done before the ruku', it is also permissible, and this is the opinion of some scholars. But the stronger opinion, and the one held by the majority, is that it is after the ruku' in the last rak'ah. As for the one who places it in the middle of the prayer, if he does so intentionally, this delays the prayer. And if he is ignorant, he is excused due to his ignorance. Yes.
