Reciting durood after the qunoot

Q: What is the ruling on reciting Durood Shareef after the Dua of Qunut in Witr prayer? Should it be recited or not? 

Some say that it is recommended - what is their evidence? And can the general public/people be encouraged to do so or not?

A: It is sunnah to recite durood after the qunoot. This is established in the Hadith.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
