Question:
Honorable Shaykh, we have a leader in our country who was ill. When he recovered, they gathered in a large open area, prayed two rak'ahs, and said this is a prayer. What is the ruling on this prayer?
Answer:
It is an innovation (bid'ah) among them, and it is not permissible for them to do it, may Allah protect us from it, and it is not accepted because this is an innovation (bid'ah). Yes.
