Question
Qunoot Naazilah is being recited daily in many places in support of the Palestinian cause. What is the status of this Qunoot?
Answer
Qunoot-e-Naazilah is not Masnoon according to the Hanafi Math-hab. Make dua silently and alone for the Islaah of the Ummah. The Qunoot they are reciting now is meaningless. It is just a lot of sound and fury signifying nothing. It is pure show and a mockery. The buffoons are making a mockery of ibaadat. The same is the attitude of buffoonery when they make Salaatul Istisqaa (for rain). Muslims have become adept in the art of show, pride and clowning. They are bereft of sincerity. They make mockeries and money out of the hardships and miseries of suffering segments of the Ummah. That is why they organize all kinds of shows, haraam sports and functions ostensibly in support of Palestine, etc., when the actual motive is the boodle and self -aggrandizement.
