باب في الْقُنُوتِ بَعْدَ الرُّكُوعِ:Chapter: Qunoot after bowing
Hadith 1638
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: سُئِلَ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ: "أَقَنَتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ أَوَ قُلْتُ لَهُ: قَبْلَ الرُّكُوعِ أَوْ بَعْدَ الرُّكُوعِ ؟ قَالَ: بَعْدَ الرُّكُوعِ يَسِيرًا" . قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد: أَقُولُ بِهِ، وَآخُذُ بِهِ، وَلَا أَرَى أَنْ آخُذَ بِهِ إِلَّا فِي الْحَرْبِ.
It was asked from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): Did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) recite Qunoot in the Fajr prayer? He replied: Yes. It was asked or (he said): I said, was it before or after bowing (ruku‘)? He said: For a few days, after bowing. Imam Darimi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I am an adherent and practitioner of this, and in my opinion, this Qunoot is only prescribed during times of war.
Brief Explanation
(Explanation of Hadiths 1635 to 1638)
These hadiths establish that Qunoot-e-Naazilah can be recited in any prayer, and it is permissible both before the bowing (ruku‘) and after the bowing, as is clear from the aforementioned hadiths. Imam Darimi rahimahullah is also inclined towards this view, and this is the position of the Ahl al-Hadith: whenever any calamity befalls the Muslims, it is recommended (mustahabb) to recite Qunoot after the bowing in the last rak‘ah of every prayer. Those who call this an innovation (bid‘ah) are completely mistaken.
Allamah Waheed al-Zaman sahib rahimahullah, who was formerly Hanafi and then adopted the Ahl al-Hadith school, states:
The position of the Ahl al-Hadith is that Qunoot is valid both before and after the bowing (ruku‘). The Shafi‘is say that Qunoot should always be recited after the bowing, and the Hanafis say that it should always be recited before the bowing, while the Ahl al-Hadith enjoy all the Sunnahs. From the previous hadith, it is also understood that supplicating against the disbelievers and oppressors does not invalidate the prayer.
«(انتهىٰ مع الملخص)».
In these hadiths, there is no mention of reciting Qunoot in Witr, but when it is permissible to recite Qunoot in obligatory prayers, then it is even more permissible (a fortiori) in Witr.
(Dawud rahimahullah).
In Witr, «اَللّٰهُمَّ اهْدِنَا فِيْمَنْ هَدَيْتَ» and in Qunoot-e-Naazilah, one should mention the enemy by name and say «اَللّٰهُمَّ الْعَن فُلَانًا», and «اَللّٰهُمَّ إِنَّا نَسْتَعِيْنُكَ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُكَ» is also for Qunoot-e-Naazilah. Besides this, «اَللّٰهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ» and other supplications can also be recited as Qunoot in Witr and other prayers at the time of need (and Allah knows best.
