That worship must conform to the Shari'ah in its quantity

The Shaykh : All right, regarding its quantity, it must conform to the Shari'ah in the amount. So if a man said, "I have energy and I have the ability; I want to pray the midday prayer (Zuhr) five times," we would tell him, "It is not permissible for you to pray the midday prayer five times, because if you pray the midday prayer five times and the sunset prayer (Maghrib) three times, and the sunset prayer is the odd-numbered prayer of the day, then the prayer of the day becomes even-numbered." He says, "If you are not pleased that I pray five, I will pray six so that the prayer of the day ends with what? With the odd-numbered prayer?" What do you say about this man who insisted on this matter? We say, "This is not permissible. This is a religious innovation (bid'ah), it is forbidden (haram), and it invalidates the prayer, because it contradicts the Shari'ah in..."

The questioner : ...its manner.

The Shaykh : It is not in the manner; in the quantity, it contradicts the Shari'ah in the quantity. Clear? All right.
