The Ruling on the Fajr Qunoot and Its Description
What is the ruling on the Fajr Qunoot, and what are its regulations regarding the affirmation of the supplication, raising the hands, and the phrases repeated by those who are following the prayer?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: In the Hanafi school, the qunut is in the Witr prayer, not in the Fajr; because the qunut in Fajr is abrogated, and it is specific to calamities. The qunut should be done quietly, and the hands are not raised in it, but rather placed as in recitation. And God knows best.
