Do3aa2 Qanoot

Our house is filled up with so many calendars like you wouldn't believe. And it would be in the weirdest places, I swear.

The oddest places.

But one place we often keep usually for a calendar is in the kitchen.

Sometimes to tell everyone who comes into the house (or rather who lives there) of what important dates there are for the family and such.

So, anyhow. Getting more to the point.

Our latest 2006 calendar had been 'over-cloaked' with a Do3aa2..

It's called Do3aa2 Qanoot.

Anyone care to enlighten what this Do3aa2 is all about? And what's it's significance from the other Do3aa2's? And why is it named so?

Appreciate the help and thanks..

As i know we recite it standing during Witr but the prophet saws used to pray it also in other prayers
Qunot al Nazilah is for periods of calamity
