What is the ruling on the Salaat al-Tafrijiyyah and the Naariyyah supplication mentioned in Sheikh Al-Sha'rawi's book "Keys to Sustenance and Relief from Distress," and are they answered immediately for whoever supplicates with them?
The ruling on "Al-Du'a' Al-Nari" (the fiery supplication) was previously clarified in Fatwa no. 31887. As for the "Salat Al-Tafrijiyyah" (the prayer of relief/deliverance), we are not aware of its form to research its permissibility. The fundamental principle is that acts of worship are tawqifiyyah (divinely ordained and unalterable), meaning they cannot be established except with a legal proof, based on the Prophet's (PBUH) saying: "Whoever innovates into this matter of ours that which is not from it, it is rejected," and "Whoever performs an action that is not in accordance with our matter, it is rejected."
