Rules and procedures for reading Najela in Kunu 1143586858

If any danger befalls the Muslims, it is mustahab to raise the head from ruku and bow to the elbow in the second rakat of the Fajr prayer to pray for guidance or baddua for the enemies of Islam. Do not always do this during the Fajr prayer. If someone does the rest, then there is no need to block it as invalid. However, it is said that it is mustahab to read Kunu Najela only during special moments such as great danger, wartime, etc. أَبُو مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي: يَا أَبَتِ إِنَّكَ قَدْ ” صَلَّيْتَ خَلْفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ “، وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرَ، وَعُثْمَانَ، وَعَلِيٍّ هَاهُنَا بِالْكُوفَةِ، قَرِيبًا مِنْ خَمْسِ سِنِينَ، أَكَانُوا يَقْنُتُونَ؟ قَالَ: أَيْ بُنَيَّ, مُحْدَثٌ Narrated by Hazrat Abu Malik. He said, I said to my father, O my father! Surely you prayed for fifty years in Kufa behind the Messenger of Allah, Hazrat Abu Bakr, Hazrat Umar, Hazrat Uthman and Hazrat Ali, did they always recite Qunut (Najelah) in the Fajr prayer? He said, O my son! No it's restarted. (Not read earlier). (Musnad Ahmad, Hadith No-15879, Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith No-1241, Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith No-402, Tahabi Shareef, Hadith No-1474, Mishkatul Masabih, Hadith No-1292) The hadith is authentic. عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَقْنُتُ إِلَّا أَنْ يَدْعُوَ لِقَوْمٍ عَلَى قَوْمٍ، فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَدْعُوَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ أَوْ يَدْعُوَ لِقَوْمٍ، قَنَتَ حِينَ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرَّكْعَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ Narrated by Hazrat Abu Hurairah. He said, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not always recite Qunut (Najelah) during the Fajr prayer. He recited only when he needed to make dua or bad dua for a nation. He recited kunut when he raised his head from ruku in the second rakat of Fajr prayer. (Sahih Ibn Khuzaimah, Hadith No-1097, Nasbur Rayah, Almusnadul Jame, Asarus Sunan-2/20) Allama Nimavi said, the chain of this hadith is Sahih. عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: «أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَقْنُتْ فِي الْفَجْرِ إِلَّا شَهْرًا وَاحِدًا، لَمْ يُرَ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ، وَلَا بَعْدَهُ يَدْعُو عَلَى أُنَاسٍ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ» Narrated by Hazrat Abdullah Bin Maseed RA. Certainly, the Prophet (PBUH) did not recite Qunut during the Fajr prayer, he only recited it for one month. It has never been seen to do so before or read. At that time he fell to cursing some polytheists. (Musnad Abi Hanifa Biriwaat Hiskafi, Hadith No-34) ان قنوت النوازل لم ينسخ بل هو مشرقة اذا نزل بالمسلمين نازلة ان يقنت الامام في الفجر – That is, the Nazala in Qunu has not been abrogated but it is still valid. During the calamity of the Muslims, Imam Kunut will read the Fajr prayer. (Elaus Sunan – 6/81) If a great calamity and danger befalls the Muslims, then it is mustahab to pray to Allah for help. When the Prophet (PBUH) was in danger, he stood up from Ruku in the second rakat of the Fajr prayer and recited the Najla several times. (Sahih Bukhari-2/655, Tahabi Sharif-1/174, Sahih Muslim-1/237) Therefore, according to the Hanafi Madhhab, if there is any danger from infidels, polytheists, and oppressors, or if there is any danger from heaven, it should be recited in Qunu. (Fatwaye Shami 2/448-449) Method of reciting Najla in Qunu In the second rakat of the obligatory Fajr prayer, the imam rises from ruku and recites the dua aloud, and the worshipers say Amin slowly. At the end of the dua, the prayer should be concluded by prostration, final meeting etc. according to the rules. (Alaws Sunan – 6/81) We have not come across any evidence for making supplication with raised hands. কুনুতে নাজেলা اللَّهُمَّ اهْدِنَا فِيمَنْ هَدَيْتَ ، وَعَافِنَا فِيمَنْ عَافَيْتَ ، وَتَوَلَّنَا فِيمَنْ تَوَلَّيْتَ ، وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِيمَا أَعْطَيْتَ ، وَقِنَا شَرَّ مَا قَضَيْتَ ، إِنَّكَ تَقْضِى وَلاَ يُقْضَى عَلَيْكَ ، إِنَّهُ لاَ يَذِلُّ مَنْ وَالَيْتَ تَبَارَكْتَ رَبَّنَا وَتَعَالَيْتَ (سنن البيهقى الكبرى، رقم الحديث-2960) اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَنَا ، وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ وَالْمُسْلِمِينَ وَالْمُسْلِمَاتِ ، وَأَلِّفْ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِهِمْ ، وَأَصْلِحْ ذَاتَ بَيْنِهِمْ ، وَانْصُرْهُمْ عَلَى عَدُوِّكَ وَعَدُوِّهِمْ ، اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنْ كَفَرَةَ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ الَّذِينَ يَصُدُّونَ عَنْ سَبِيلِكَ ، وَيُكُذِّبُونَ رُسُلَكَ ، وَيُقَاتِلُونَ أَوْلِيَاءَكَ اللَّهُمَّ خَالِفْ بَيْنَ كَلِمَتِهِمَ ، وَزَلْزِلْ أَقْدَامَهُمْ ، وَأَنْزِلْ بِهِمْ بَأْسَكَ الَّذِى لاَ تَرُدُّهُ عَنِ الْقَوْمِ الْمُجْرِمِينَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا نَسْتَعِينُكَ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَنُثْنِى عَلَيْكَ وَلاَ نَكْفُرُكَ ، وَنَخْلَعُ وَنَتْرُكُ مَنْ يَفْجُرُكَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ اللَّهُمَّ إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ ، وَلَكَ نُصَلِّى وَنَسْجُدُ ، وَلَكَ نَسْعَى وَنَحْفِدُ ، نَخْشَى عَذَابَكَ الْجَدَّ ، وَنَرْجُو رَحْمَتَكَ ، إِنَّ عَذَابَكَ بِالْكَافِرِينَ مُلْحَقٌ.
