What is the ruling on a person leaving the Imam during the Tarawih prayer before the Witr, in order to pray the Witr alone, due to the Imam prolonging the Qunut supplication, chanting it, using rhymed prose, and raising his voice with crying and wailing?
The Imam should be advised and provided with books and fatwas regarding the correction of supplication. It is permissible to pray Witr alone, but it is better to pray in another mosque where the Imam is more committed to the Sunnah.
