Summary
Qunut Nazilah is a recommended act (sunnah) recited during the final i'tidal of any obligatory prayer when Muslims are afflicted by a calamity such as fear, drought, plague or locust attacks. It is recommended only in obligatory prayers. Any Muslim may recite it without waiting for an instruction, though in the Malaysian context the Sultan and religious agencies have authority to order or stop its recitation. This article is an explanatory piece and not the official position of the Selangor Mufti.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Manakala, hukum bacaan Qunut Nazilah adalah sunat. Ia disunatkan membacanya semasa iktidal rakaat yang terakhir dalam mana-mana solat fardu.
