Is it wrong to gather on a specific day or time, for a group dhikr including the sending of salat and salam on the Prophet. We have a gathering in our Masjid, where one person reads fourty Salat & Salam while the rest of the people listen. Also, there is a gathering (majlis) of Dhikr. They say this was the practice of Shaykh Zakariyya.
Is this permissible or will it be regarded as innovation (bid’ah) as some people have objected?
