I am writing to inquire about an activity that is done in our Masjid as whether it is a Bed'ah(innovation)or not.Every day just after each Fajr Salat the Imam asks someone to distribute Mushafs- Qurans. So, each one in the Masjid gets one and then they set in circles and one person in each circle recites three Ayats-and just three Ayats- then the next one recites the same three Ayats, and the next follows, and the next one and so on.. The reason I suspected it might be a Bed'aa (innovation) since it closely resembles what the Sufi sects do after Salat as they set in circle and do Zikr - Subhanallah, Alhamdullella, Allaho-akbar..etc. I heard lots of Ulama- Ahl Assunna wal Jama'aa- say that it is Bed'ah (innovation). And the Ulama explained that although the Zikr that they do itself is a Sunna after the Salat but how they do it and the way they do it is what transformed it into a Bed'ah (innovation).Furthermore, by doing that just after the Salat they are might be losing other Sunnas that are reported by the Prophet-peace be upon him- to be done after Fajr Salat.Finally, both the Sufi sects and our Masjid administration-which I know are not Sufis- may come up with lot of reasons and advantages as to why they do that, and the benefits that each one who participates may get.Please help us stay on the straight path and follow the right Sunna of the prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him.

Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions.

No doubt, the best deeds that are carried out to gain the pleasure of Allah are that confirm the Sunnah of the Prophet Mohammad (Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam). So, the highly marvelous act after al-Fajr prayer is being engaged in invoking the supplication that are said in morning. However, the practice of this Imam is good and he will be rewarded for it though it is not the best act. It is not a Bid'ah if the intention is to teach them the correct way of the recitation of the Quran or to help them momorize a chapter after a chapter from the Quran.
Allah knows best
