Is the qunut for a calamity limited to a month based on the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) action, or is it tied to the persistence of the calamity?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is the qunut for a calamity limited to a month because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did so, or is it tied to the removal of the calamity?

The Shaykh:
It is determined by the order of the one in authority. If the one in authority sets a limit, that is sufficient. Yes.

The questioner:
May Allah reward you, and this is the reason.

The Shaykh:
It is within the authority of the one in authority. However, supplication is not prohibited, my brother. If you do not supplicate for them in the qunut, supplicate for them in your prayer, in your du'a, in what is not obligatory in the qunut. Yes.
