Most of what is mentioned regarding the specific properties of the Quran is based on experience, and it is permissible to act upon the recitation of a followed by supplication. However, committing to repeating it a specific number of times or at a specific time is not advisable, as it constitutes an additive innovation (bid‘ah iḍāfiyyah).
