What dua should be made in Qunut?


Q: What dua should be made in Qunut?

 

A: The recommended dua, which should be made in Arabic, for qunut is as follows:

“O Allāh, we seek Your help, Your guidance and Your forgiveness, and repent to You. We believe in You, trust in You, and we praise You beneficently. We thank You and do not deny You. O Allāh, You alone do we worship and to You we pray and bow down prostrate. To You we hasten to worship and to serve. Our hope is for Your mercy and we fear Your punishment. Surely, Your inevitable punishment of the disbelievers is at hand.”

“O Allāh, guide us with those whom You have guided, and strengthen us with those whom You have given strength. Take us to Your care with those whom You have taken to Your care. Bless us in what You have given. Surely, You command and are not commanded. None whom You have committed to Your care shall be humiliated and none whom You have taken as an enemy shall taste glory. You are Blessed, Our Lord, and Exalted. O Allāh, we seek refuge with Your pleasure from Your anger. We seek refuge in Your forgiveness from Your punishment. We seek refuge in You from You. We cannot count Your praises, You are as You have praised Yourself.”

Then prayers are sent upon the Prophet (peace be upon him).
