Is it wrong or an innovation to recite wirid in a group after congregational prayer and to say amen to the imam's supplication?

Summary
Wirid, remembrance and supplication after prayer are grounded in textual evidence, and wirid should be recited as transmitted from the Prophet through authentic hadith. Reciting in a group and with raised voices was not done by the Prophet, so scholars differ on whether it is an innovation. The Mufti inclines to the view that takes local custom into account and refers readers to works such as al-Azkar by Imam al-Nawawi.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Berkenaan dengan cara berkumpulan dan dengan meninggikan suara memang tidak dilakukan oleh Rasulullah SAW.
