The Ruling on Qunut in the Friday Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May the Shaykh be respected! What is the ruling on qunut in the Friday prayer?The Shaykh: The scholars say: The imam does not perform qunut in the Friday prayer; because the sermon contains supplication for the believers, so one supplicates for those for whom one intends to perform qunut during the sermon. This is what the people of knowledge said.
And Allah knows best.
The questioner: And if he performs qunut, O Shaykh?The Shaykh: As long as the scholars said: he does not perform qunut, then he should leave it.
The questioner: And is it permissible, O Shaykh?The Shaykh: There is no harm; because even if he performs qunut, he is not considered a sinner; but it is better to supplicate for those for whom he intends to perform qunut during the sermon.
