About Dua e Qunoot
Dua e Qunoot is part of the Muslims Around the World network, a family of Islamic websites.
Why a site for Dua e Qunoot
Dua e Qunoot exists because the qunoot is the one part of witr many people still read from a card. It keeps the duas, their references and the schools’ practice on a few clear pages, so you can learn the words and know where they come from.
For a gift that keeps going, see sadaqah jariyah projects. See every UK Muslim charity, A to Z, and the work each one delivers.
Who runs it
Dua e Qunoot is made by Muslims Around the World. Each site in the family does one job and tries to do it well: a city's prayer times, a Ramadan timetable, a surah, a dua. Every one of them is listed on the Muslims Around the World sites page.
Muslims Around the World is protecting the legacy of Ali Banat, may Allah have mercy on him, and every site in the family is part of that work. Read his story.
You can learn more with us at muslimsaroundtheworld.org: short reminders from scholars, duas with their meaning, Quran recitations and prayer times.
The site is free, has no third-party adverts and needs no account.
Where the text comes from
- The Arabic of the duas
- Hisn al-Muslim (Fortress of the Muslim) by Sa‘id bin ‘Ali bin Wahf al-Qahtani, from the Arabic files published by hisnmuslim.com, copied unchanged. A few duas the book doesn’t hold come from the hadith collections named beside them, as muslimsaroundtheworld.org records them.
- English and transliteration
- Written by Muslims Around the World from the Arabic and shown exactly as on muslimsaroundtheworld.org. We don’t use the published English edition of the book.
- References
- Each dua carries the hadith collection and number it comes from. We only publish a number we can confirm in our source data; a dua without a confirmed reference isn’t shown.
- Quran verses
- Verses are the King Fahd Complex mushaf text (Hafs), from Quran.com’s data, checked letter for letter.
How every line is checked
Before a page is published, an automatic review compares every verse and every dua on it with the source files above, letter for letter: the Arabic, the English and the transliteration must be exactly the source's, and each dua and hadith must carry its reference. If one letter differs, the page is held back until it is put right. Explanations we write ourselves name their source in the same paragraph, and we don't give rulings in our own words.
