Question:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After coming up from ruku in Witr I remembered I had forgotten Qunoot. I then decided to go down into sujood instead of reciting it after ruku. I did Sajda sahw so is the salah valid?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In Witr Salah, the\u00a0Du\u2018a Qunoot\u00a0is a unique and important component, particularly in the\u00a0third rak’ah. According to the\u00a0Hanafi school, reciting Qunoot is\u00a0w\u0101jib (necessary). Missing a wajib act in Salah unintentionally requires\u00a0Sajda Sahw the prostration of forgetfulness) to compensate for missing out a wajib or fard act in Salah.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If a person forgets Qunoot and only remembers it\u00a0after ruku, then he should not return\u00a0to recite it, Instead,\u00a0continue the prayer\u00a0as normal and then Perform Sajda Sahw\u00a0before or after salam to correct the mistake.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Your Salah is\u00a0valid and acceptable, inshaAllah, because you followed this method correctly.<\/span><\/p>\n
