٣٨٧ - حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: «قِيلَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَيُّ الصَّلَاةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: طُولُ الْقُنُوتِ». وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ حُبْشِيٍّ وَأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ. حَدِيثُ جَابِرٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَقَدْ رُوِيَ مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجْهٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ.

The word 'Qunūt' is used for various meanings, for example: obedience, humility, prayer, worship, supplication, standing in prayer, long standing, silence; so the meaning will be determined according to the context. Here it means standing in prayer, as the majority said.
