Qunoot audibly

Question:

Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.

I am hanafi and I lead taraweeh in a mixture community, having shafe, hanbali, and salafe praying behind me. I pray my witr like hanafi do, like three rakath and qunoot before ruku and recite qunoot seilently. Those who pray behind me they are insisting me to recite qunoot loudly in Salah. Will that be permissible for me? Is it allowed in hanafi madhab to recite qunoot loudly in Salah? Answer: ﺑﺴﻢ اﷲ اﻟﺮﺣﻤﻦ اﻟﺮﺣﯿﻢ In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

It is best that the Imam recites the qunoot silently, and this is the chosen opinion in the Hanafi madhab. However, it is also permissible for the Imam to recite the qunoot loudly. [1] Only Allah knows best
