What are the appropriate daily adhkar for a Muslim, and which adhkar are recommended to be recited frequently? Is it permissible to follow adhkar authorized by Sufi orders, such as Salat al-Fatih and Jawharat al-Kamal?
Mention the prescribed morning and evening remembrances (dhikr), and the general (unrestricted) remembrances. Then clarify that Sufi remembrances, such as Salat al-Fatih and Jawharat al-Kamal, are innovations introduced by the misguided Tijaniyya. They falsely claim that reciting Salat al-Fatih is better than reciting the Quran six thousand times. Whoever equates the word of Allah with the word of others has committed disbelief, so what about one who prefers it?
As for Salat Jawharat al-Kamal, it is an innovation that combines weak wording and unsound meanings, and it insults the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. The Tijaniyya stipulate water purification for its recitation, and dry purification (tayammum) is not sufficient. The questioner is warned against these innovative paths.
