What is the ruling on adhering to a daily recitation (wird) written by their Shaykh?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In our country, there is a group that has a daily recitation written by their first Shaykh, which is read after the Fajr and 'Asr prayers. As they claim, it contains a collection of verses and hadiths. They call this recitation by the name of their founder. He asks: Is it permissible to sit with them when they recite it?

Answer:
No, these people have a bid'ah (religious innovation). That is, their adherence to this recitation written by their leader or Shaykh is considered a bid'ah. Adhering to it is a bid'ah. It may contain shirk (associating partners with Allah) supplications or innovative supplications, and we do not know about it. Yes.
