Is there a voluntary prayer that a Muslim prays on the last Wednesday of Safar during the time of Duha?

Question:
A questioner from outside this country says that some of our scholars mention that in the religion of Islam there is a voluntary prayer that a Muslim prays on the last Wednesday of Safar during the time of Duha. Is there evidence for this?

Answer:
This is a bid'ah (religious innovation); this is not permissible. It is based on the fact that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) made a supplication on a Wednesday and it was answered for him, but this was not a sunnah (recommended practice) after him (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
