أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ اَلْخَزَّازِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلَهُ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا وَ أَنَا عِنْدَهُ عَنِ اَلْقُنُوتِ فِي اَلْجُمُعَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ« فِي اَلرَّكْعَةِ اَلثَّانِيَةِ» فَقَالَ لَهُ قَدْ حَدَّثَنَا بِهِ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا أَنَّكَ قُلْتَ لَهُ فِي اَلرَّكْعَةِ اَلْأُولَى فَقَالَ« فِي اَلْأَخِيرَةِ» فَلَمَّا رَأَى غَفْلَةً مِنْهُ فَقَالَ« يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ فِي اَلْأُولَى وَ اَلْأَخِيرَةِ» فَقَالَ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَ قَبْلَ اَلرُّكُوعِ أَوْ بَعْدَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ« كُلُّ قُنُوتٍ قَبْلَ اَلرُّكُوعِ إِلاَّ اَلْجُمُعَةَ فَإِنَّ اَلرَّكْعَةَ اَلْأُولَى فِيهَا قَبْلَ اَلرُّكُوعِ وَ اَلْأَخِيرَةَ بَعْدَ اَلرُّكُوعِ»
Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa, from Ali ibn al-Hakam, from Abu Ayyub al-Khazzaz, from Abu Basir, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, who said:
One of our companions asked Him عليه السلام, and I (Abu Basir) was present, about ‘qunut’ in the Friday prayer. Imam عليه السلام said to him: “In the second rak‘ah.” So the man said to Him عليه السلام: “One of our companions narrated to us that you told him it is in the first rak‘ah.” Imam عليه السلام said: “In the last.” Then, when He عليه السلام saw that the man was confused, Imam عليه السلام said: “O Aba Muhammad, (it is) in both the first and the last.” Then Abu Basir asked after that: “Is it before the bowing or after it?” So Abu Abdillah عليه السلام said: “Every ‘qunut’ is before bowing, except in Friday prayer: in the first rak‘ah it is before bowing, and in the last it is after bowing.”
