The answer

The fundamental principle in acts of worship is tawqif (strict adherence to what has been legislated), and it has not been authentically reported from the Prophet (peace be upon him) that he said, "May Allah establish it and perpetuate it" upon hearing the . The reported regarding this is weak due to the presence of an unnamed narrator in its chain. Therefore, reciting this supplication is not permissible. It is preferable for whoever hears the iqamah to say what the mu'adhdhin says, because the iqamah is a call to prayer (), and it has been reported from the Prophet (peace be upon him): "When you hear the mu'adhdhin, say what he says."
