Is it permissible to perform a special prayer for the purpose of seeing the Prophet (peace be upon him) in a dream?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is not permissible to innovate any act of worship for which there is no scriptural basis, for the religion has been perfected. There is no evidence for a specific prayer to see the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, in a dream. And whoever innovates in the religion something that is not part of it, it is rejected.
