The answer

The aforementioned exercise is void because it is based on the corrupt law of attraction, and because it involves specifying certain supplications for certain purposes with a certain number. This contradicts what is established in Islamic law: that supplication is an act of worship, and one must adhere to what is mentioned in the concerning it. It is not a field for invention or innovation, as Allah Almighty says: (And your Lord says, "Call upon Me; I will respond to you." Indeed, those who disdain My worship will enter Hell [rendered] contemptible). The legitimacy of an act of worship depends on its being mentioned in the Sharia concerning its type, form, quantity, manner, time, place, and reason.
