Ruling on adding the word "shukr" (thanks) to the prayer of the one who is praying: (Our Lord, to You belongs all praise)]
Your Eminence, may Allah preserve you, saying: Our Lord, to You belongs all praise and thanks.
Is the addition of "and thanks" established or not?
No.
It is not established.The prayer of the one who is praying, if he says: When one says, "Allah hears the one who praises Him," he says, "Our Lord, to You belongs all praise," and he does not add anything. What some of the common people add is out of ignorance. They say, "Praise be to Allah and thanks be to Allah," but the best is to follow the text.
The questioner: And is it said to be an innovation?The Shaykh: No.
He did not intend to innovate. This is either something that just came out of his mouth, or it is from the category of loving the remembrance of Allah.But it is said to him: The best is to restrict oneself to what the text has brought.
