The questioner : Is the qunut in the month of Ramadan before the bowing or after? Or are both permissible?
The Shaykh : The recommended practice (sunnah) for the qunut in witr is before the bowing, but it is established from 'Umar ibn al-Khattab and others that it is done after the bowing; so both are permissible, but the recommended practice is more beloved to us.
Another questioner : The one that is before the bowing.

The Shaykh : When nothing remains but the bowing, he recites the qunut.
The questioner : ... They might take him out of the mosque!
The Shaykh : Strange!
The questioner : Because I have not seen anyone or heard of anyone.
The Shaykh : By the way, we have prayed in this mosque only a few prayers; are the imams different, or is he delayed?
The questioner : No, he is the judge (qadi).
The Shaykh : The judge.
The questioner : But the judge is sometimes not present; the dawn (Fajr) came... but he might be delayed a little.
The Shaykh : Ah, okay. The one who led us in prayer yesterday was also a deputy for the judge?
Another questioner : ...Maghrib.
The Shaykh : The sunset prayer (Maghrib). This heavyset man?
The questioner : He is the judge.
The Shaykh : So now, if he did not come out, he has an excuse, meaning, he did not pray.

The Shaykh : He came?
