Qunut Supplication in Fajr Prayer in the UAE Today: The Written Text and Offline Access

From this morning, Wednesday, 18 March 2026, the mosques across the nation, from Abu Dhabi to Fujairah and from Sharjah to Ajman, have regained their spiritual warmth. The Qunut supplication has returned to the Fajr prayer, and this time it's official, following a circular from official sources. Anyone who prayed Fajr today would have surely felt the difference – that moment of collective supplication and unity just before the Imam says the final greeting. It's something that reminds us of days gone by and uplifts the spirit during the last ten days of Ramadan.

What's the story with the Qunut supplication today?

Qunut isn't an innovation or something new; it's a Prophetic tradition (Sunnah) that many of us wished for during every Fajr prayer. The decision, which took effect from today, aims to revive this Sunnah and enhance devotion in the dawn prayer. The Ramadan atmosphere, combined with this decision, has created an exceptional spiritual state in the mosques. People leaving prayers today are reciting the supplication, and everyone is looking for a way to ensure they can memorise it and recite it along with the Imam. For this reason, we are sharing with you the written Qunut supplication exactly as it is recited by the imams.

The Qunut Supplication Written Down.. Memorise It and Recite It

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

• "O Allah, guide us among those You have guided, grant us health among those You have granted health, take us into Your care among those You have taken into Your care, bless us in what You have given us, and protect us from the evil of what You have decreed. Indeed, You decree and none can decree over You. Indeed, he is not humiliated whom You befriend, nor is he honoured who is Your enemy. Blessed are You, our Lord, and Exalted."
• Following this, it is recommended to send blessings upon the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, and to supplicate for Muslims everywhere.

Many brothers and sisters are asking about a way to read the supplication at home or in the car without using mobile data. That's why the best solution is to copy the text or save an image of the supplication in your phone's gallery. This way, you'll have the Qunut supplication offline that you can refer back to anytime, whether in the prayer hall or at home before Fajr.

How to Make Qunut a Part of Your Day?

And for anyone with a question about the wording or the method of supplication, imams are available in the mosques after prayers for any queries. Fajr today, and in the days to come, has taken on a special flavour in our beloved country. O Allah, accept our righteous deeds and yours.
