Qunut Prayer in Fajr Salat in UAE Today: Written Text and Offline Access

From the early morning of Wednesday, 18 March 2026, mosques across the nation, from Abu Dhabi to Fujairah and from Sharjah to Ajman, have regained their spiritual warmth. The Qunut prayer has returned to the Fajr (dawn) prayer, and this time it's official following a directive from official sources. Anyone who prayed Fajr today surely felt the difference—that moment of collective supplication just before the Imam says the final Salam. It reminds us of the good old days and touches our hearts, especially during the last ten days of Ramadan.

What's the Story Behind the Qunut Prayer Today?

Qunut is not an innovation or something new; it's a Prophetic tradition we always wished for during every Fajr. The decision, which was implemented from today, aims to revive this Sunnah and enhance devotion and focus in the Fajr prayer. The Ramadan atmosphere, combined with this decision, has filled the mosques with an exceptional spiritual energy. People today are reciting the prayer after the congregation, and everyone is looking for a way to memorize it and recite it along with the Imam. For this reason, we are publishing the written Qunut prayer exactly as recited by the imams.

The Qunut Prayer in Writing.. Memorize and Recite It

To share in the reward and follow the Imam word for word, here is the text of the supplication used in most UAE mosques:

• "O Allah, guide us among those You have guided, pardon us among those You have pardoned, befriend us among those You have befriended, bless us in what You have granted, and save us from the evil of what You have decreed. For verily You decree and none can decree over You. He whom You befriend is never humbled. Blessed and Exalted are You, our Lord."
• It is recommended to then send blessings upon the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and supplicate for Muslims everywhere.

Many brothers and sisters are asking how to read the supplication at home or in the car without using mobile data. For this reason, the best solution is to copy the text or save an image of the prayer in your phone's gallery. This way, you'll have the Qunut prayer offline and can refer to it anytime, whether in the prayer area at work or before Fajr at home.

How to Make Qunut a Part of Your Day?

This isn't just about being in the mosque. The Qunut prayer has a different flavor when we understand its meaning. These days, try teaching this supplication to your children, explain to them that we are asking Allah for guidance and well-being. Let them feel the joy of standing before the Creator in the depths of the night. If anyone has a question about the wording or method of this prayer, imams are available in mosques after prayers for any queries. Fajr today, and on other days, has taken on a special meaning in our beloved nation. O Allah, accept our good deeds and yours.
