Is it prescribed to recite qunut in times of calamity without a fatwa from the scholars?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks: What is the ruling on reciting qunut in these days for the Muslims of the people of the Sunnah in the Levant?

Answer:
If a fatwa is issued by the competent authority, then one recites qunut. But as long as no fatwa has been issued, one does not. As for supplication, you are not prohibited from making du'a in your prostration, in your bowing, in your prayers, or in your private moments; you are not prevented from making du'a for the Muslims. But as for the prayer, nothing is to be added to it except by a fatwa from the scholars. The prayer is an act of worship, and nothing is to be added to it except by a fatwa from the scholars. Yes.
