What is the ruling on dedicating 'Umrah and tawaf to the Prophet so that he may grant his intercession?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on the validity of this belief and its permissibility? He asks about dedicating 'Umrah or tawaf to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on the grounds that some people performed tawaf and 'Umrah and dedicated it to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and then saw him in a dream, and he said to him, "My intercession has been granted to you."

Answer:
There is no evidence from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding this. And since there is no evidence for it, we do not act upon it, and we do not dedicate 'Umrah or Hajj to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), because Allah has made him in no need of it, and because he has a reward equal to the rewards of his Ummah. So if you perform Hajj in the prescribed manner, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) has a reward equal to your reward in this Hajj. And if you perform 'Umrah in the prescribed manner, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) has a reward equal to your reward. And if you pray in the prescribed manner, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) has a reward equal to your reward. And whatever act of worship you worship Allah with in the way of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), the Messenger has a reward equal to your reward without you having to dedicate it to him. It is Allah who gave him this, a reward equal to the rewards of his Ummah, peace and blessings be upon him. So there is no need for this. Yes.
