The answer

The intent of the question is not clear. If the questioner is asking about the ruling on adding, omitting, or changing the order in the reported supplications (Du'as) and remembrances (Adhkar), then the answer is that the remembrances (Adhkar) that are specific to a particular situation should not be altered, nor should anything be added to them or omitted from them. A Muslim should be keen to perform them with the exact wordings in which they were reported. Nevertheless, if someone makes such a change, it is not to be denounced, because it is not a forbidden act, unless it results in changing the meaning to one that contradicts the Shari'ah.
