What is the ruling on dedicating each day of the week to a specific type of remembrance (dhikr), such as "Subhan Allah, wal-hamdulillah, wa la ilaha illallah, wallahu akbar" for Monday, and "Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi, Subhan Allah al-Azim" for Tuesday, and so on for the rest of the days, without adhering to a specific number?

The remembrance of Allah Almighty is prescribed at all times, and a Muslim should engage in it frequently, for Allah Almighty says: "O you who have believed, remember Allah with much remembrance And exalt Him morning and afternoon." The distribution of remembrance throughout the days of the week in a specific manner was not reported from the Salaf, and adhering to it in this way is considered an additional innovation, and it deprives a Muslim of other desirable daily remembrances, such as seeking forgiveness and sending prayers upon the Prophet.
