Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The listener F-Ba asks about qunut in cases of calamity and the meaning of general calamities. He says: Since some students of knowledge told me that general calamities do not require that they affect every Muslim on earth, and that specific calamities are those that befall a Muslim or the specific group of his father or brother, or the like. It appears to me that
Answer:
what happens to Muslims in general, or to some Muslims in some regions, in the form of harassment by disbelievers?
or the aggression of disbelievers, or the raiding of disbelievers upon Muslims. In such cases, qunut is prescribed in the obligatory prayers, supplicating for them that Allah may deliver them from what has befallen them, or qunut by supplicating against their enemies, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did. He performed qunut in the Fajr prayer, supplicating for a group of the oppressed Muslims in Makkah that Allah would deliver them from the hands of the disbelievers. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) performed qunut supplicating against a group of polytheists who had harmed and oppressed the Muslims. If such a thing occurs, it is recommended to perform qunut for the Muslims, following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). However, this is to be done by the order of the Imam or the deputy of the Imam. If the one in authority or the deputy of the one in authority orders qunut in the mosques, then it is done, following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). As for calamities specific to individuals, qunut is not prescribed for them, because this was not mentioned from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), nor from his Companions, nor from the blessed generations, nor indeed from the general generations of Muslims. For specific calamities continue to befall individuals, they continue to befall individuals, and it was not mentioned that they used to perform qunut for that reason. Yes.
