I asked Anas about the Qunut (i.e. invocation in the prayer). Anas said, "It should be recited before
bowing." I said, "So-and-so claims that you say that it should be recited after bowing." He replied,
"He is mistaken." Then Anas narrated to us that the Prophet (ﷺ) invoked evil on the tribe of Bani-Sulaim
for one month after bowing. ' Anas Further said, "The Prophet (ﷺ) had sent 40 or 70 Qaris (i.e. men well
versed in the knowledge of the Qur'an) to some pagans, but the latter struggled with them and
martyred them, although there was a peace pact between them and the Prophet (ﷺ) I had never seen the
Prophet so sorry and worried about anybody as he was about them (i.e. the Qaris).
