Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #26559

Qutaibah narrated to us, and Muhammad bin Al-Muthanna narrated to us, saying: Ghandar narrated to us, Muhammad bin Ja’far narrated to us, on the authority of Shu’bah, on the authority of Amr bin Murrah, on the authority of Abd Al-Rahman bin Abi Laila, on the authority of Al-Baraa bin Aazib, that the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, used to recite Qunoot in the morning and sunset prayers. He said, and in the section On the authority of Ali, Anas, Abu Hurairah, Ibn Abbas, and Khafaf bin Ima bin Radha Al-Ghafari. Abu Issa said the hadith of Al-Baraa is a hasan hadith. Sahih. The people of knowledge differed regarding Qunoot in the Fajr prayer, and some of the people of knowledge among the companions of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and others were of the opinion Qunoot in the Fajr prayer is the opinion of Malik and Al-Shafi’i. Ahmad and Ishaq said that Qunoot is not to be performed during Fajr except when a calamity occurs. For the Muslims, so if a calamity strikes, the Imam may call for the Muslim armies.
