The ruling on reciting al-Fatihah at the beginning or end of any matter that contains good

Your Eminence, what is the ruling on reciting al-Fatihah at the beginning of any matter that contains good?
Answer: There is no basis for this.
The presenter: There is no basis for this.
The Shaykh: Neither before nor after. What some people do—reciting al-Fatihah at the start or at the end, at the end of tawaf or sa'y, or in other types of worship—has no basis for this. Allah has only prescribed its recitation in prayer. Reciting it with the Qur'an, so that whenever one finishes a recitation, one starts again with it and reads, is good. But singling it out for recitation during one's tawaf, or at the end of one's tawaf, or in the types of transactions they perform, has no basis for this. However, if one recites al-Hamd (the opening of al-Fatihah) at the beginning of supplication, and sends blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and says: the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate ۝ Master of the Day of Judgment [al-Fatihah:2-4], the beginning of al-Fatihah; because it is praise and eulogy, or one praises Him with other types of praise, there is no harm. At the beginning of supplication, then one sends blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), then supplicates. This is not harmful, reciting its beginning because it is praise and eulogy, because it is praise of Allah and glorification of Him (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
The presenter: If a reciter in a mosque or on a specific occasion recites verses from the Noble Qur'an and finishes, and then says: al-Fatihah, how do you direct us?
The Shaykh: This also has no basis.
The presenter: It has no basis.
The Shaykh: It has no basis; it is a religious innovation.
The presenter: So, the Muslim should avoid it and not respond to this call?
The Shaykh: Yes, yes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stated a legal principle: This applies to acts of worship, to the deeds by which people worship. As for worldly matters, in buying and selling and agriculture, these are matters of people's customs and their norms. But as for acts of worship by which a person draws near to Allah, one must not innovate anything, neither in supplication nor otherwise. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you.
