The questioner : His other question asks whether there is a specific supplication for tawaf or sa'y for Hajj or 'Umrah, and whether it is permissible to recite the Qur'an during them?
The Shaykh : There is no specific supplication for Hajj or 'Umrah; rather, a person says whatever he wishes of supplication. However, if he takes what was reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), that is more complete, such as the supplication between the Yemeni Corner and the Black Stone:[Al-Baqarah 2:201], as well as what was reported of supplication on the Day of 'Arafah, and what was reported of dhikr on al-Safa and al-Marwah, and the like. So, what one knows, he should say, and what he does not know, what is in his mind of what he knows is sufficient for him. And this is not on the basis of obligation, but rather on the basis of recommendation.
The important point is that there is no specific supplication for Hajj or 'Umrah that is mandatory; rather, the matter in it is entirely on the basis of virtue. On this occasion, I would like to say: what is written in these small booklets that fall into the hands of pilgrims and 'Umrah performers, of supplications specified for each lap, I say: this is from the religious innovations that were not reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). In it, too, there are harms that are known. Those who recite them think that it is a matter reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), then they believe in worshipping with those specific words. Then they recite them while perhaps not knowing their meaning or what is intended by them. Then they specify this supplication for each lap; if the supplication ends before the completion of the lap, as happens in the crowd, they remain silent for the rest of the lap. And if the lap ends before the completion of this supplication, they cut it off and leave it, even if he has stopped at the phrase "O Allah," and he has not come to what he wants to cut off and leave. All of this is from the errors and the harms that result from this religious innovation.
Likewise, what is found in these booklets of supplication at the Station of Ibrahim: this was not reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he supplicated at the Station of Ibrahim. Rather, when he turned toward it, he recited:[Al-Baqarah 2:125] and prayed two rak'ahs behind it. As for this supplication that they supplicate with and disturb the worshippers with at the Station, it is reprehensible from two aspects. The first aspect is that it was not reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so it is a religious innovation.
The second aspect: they annoy these worshippers who are praying behind the Station with it.
The important point is that most of what is found in these booklets is mostly innovated, either in its manner, or in its time, or in its place.
