Question:
What is the ruling on books sold that contain supplications designated for each lap of the tawaf and sa'y?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that if the supplications in these books are from what is reported in the Book and the Sunnah, or if they conform to the Book and the Sunnah; in that case, there is nothing wrong with it. However, it is better for a person to supplicate himself with whatever is easy for him and not carry these books. But if he is not good at supplicating or remembering Allah, and these books do not contain anything forbidden by the Shari'ah, then there is nothing wrong with that, on the condition that he does not raise his voice to disturb people or disturb those performing tawaf. Yes, as happens with some of those performing tawaf, who cause disturbance, raise their voices, and create annoyance. This is worship, and worship requires humility, tranquility, calmness, and the absence of annoyance or disturbance.
