1- In the first Rak'at, after the recitation of the Al-Hamd and the other chapter, one must pronounce five Takbeers, and after each of these Takbeers, one Qunut must be offered; after the fifth Qunut, another Takbeer must be pronounced and then the bow and prostrations must be performed.

2- In the second Rak'at, there are four Takbeers to be pronounced after the recitation of the Al-Hamd and the other chapter; after each Takbeer one Qunut is offered and after the fourth Qunut one more Takbeer is pronounced; then, there is the bow, prostrations, testimony and salutation.

3- Any supplication or Remembrance would suffice for the Qunut in the prayers of the festivals, but it is better if the following supplication is pronounced with the intention of obtaining the blessings:
