401. Al-Barā' bin 'Āzib narrated: "The Prophet ﷺ would perform the Qunūt in the Ṣubh and Maghrib prayers." (Ṣaḥīḥ) [He said:] There are narrations on this topic from 'Alī, Anas, Abū Hurairah, Ibn 'Abbās, and Khufāf bin Aymā' bin Raḥdah Al-Ghifārī. Abū 'Eisā said: The Hadīth of Al-Barā' is a Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ Hadīth. The people of knowledge differ over the Qunūt in the Fajr prayer. Some of the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ and others held the view that there was a Qunūt for the Fajr prayer. This is the saying of [Mālik and] Ash-Shāfī'. Aḥmad and Ishāq said that there is no Qunūt for Fajr except in the case of a disaster (Nāzilah) that strikes the Muslims, so when a disaster strikes the Muslims the Imām is to supplicate for the Muslim armies.

٤٠١ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ ‌وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا ‌غُنْدَرٌ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، عَنْ ‌شُعْبَةَ ، عَنْ ‌عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى ، عَنِ ‌الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «كَانَ يَقْنُتُ فِي صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ». وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، وَأَنَسٍ، وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، وَخُفَافِ بْنِ إِيمَاءَ بْنِ رَحَضَةَ الْغِفَارِيِّ. حَدِيثُ الْبَرَاءِ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَاخْتَلَفَ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ فِي الْقُنُوتِ فِي صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ: فَرَأَى بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَغَيْرِهِمُ الْقُنُوتَ فِي صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الشَّافِعِيِّ. وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ وَإِسْحَاقُ: لَا يُقْنَتُ فِي الْفَجْرِ إِلَّا عِنْدَ نَازِلَةٍ تَنْزِلُ بِالْمُسْلِمِينَ، فَإِذَا نَزَلَتْ نَازِلَةٌ فَلِلْإِمَامِ أَنْ يَدْعُوَ لِجُيُوشِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ.

Commentary

The right view is that when the Muslims suffer from calamities and disasters, the Qunūt should be read in all the prayers, and the Qunūt is not particular with any specific prayer. However depending upon the circumstances and places, the Qunūt should be made in all prayers or in morning and evening prayers.
