The Prophet (sa) offered supplication (Dua) at times of calamity on a number of occasions, and his supplication was appropriate to the calamity, for which he was praying Qunoot. It is proven that the Prophet (sa) used to say Qunoot at times of calamity, praying against the aggressors among the disbelievers and praying for the weak and oppressed Muslims to be saved from the plots and captivity of the Kafirs. This can be done in any of the five obligatory prayers. Rather, what is proven is that the Prophet (sa) used to say Qunoot at times of calamity only, with words that were appropriate to the situations. With regard to saying Dua al-Qunoot in Fajr prayer all the time in all circumstances, there is no Saheeh report that the Prophet (sa) singled out for Fajr for reciting Dua al-Qunoot all the time or that he always recited in Fajr prayer. In fact, this Sunnah is still practiced in many of the Arab countries. If a calamity (Nazilah) befalls the Muslims, it is prescribed to say Dua al-Qunoot after standing up from Rukoo in the last Rakah of each Salah, until Allah (swt) relieves the Muslims of that calamity. Reciting Qunoot-e-Nazilah is an absolutely authentic practice.
