Question:
A questioner says: I made du'a' to Allah, and then I said, "By the status of Your Prophet Muhammad, and by the reward of Surat al-Fatihah." Is that permissible?
Answer:
No, that is not permissible. It is a bid'ah (religious innovation). You must not return to doing such a thing. Make du'a' to Allah and do not say, "By the status of so-and-so." Yes.
