✅ Answer: Consider the following narrations:

1⃣عَنِ ابْنِ حُمَیْدٍ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَی أَمِیرِ الْمُؤْمِنِینَ علیه السلام فَقَالَ أَخْبِرْنِی عَنِ السُّنَّةِ وَ الْبِدْعَةِ وَ عَنِ الْجَمَاعَةِ وَ عَنِ الْفِرْقَةِ فَقَالَ أَمِیرُ الْمُؤْمِنِینَ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَیْهِ السُّنَّةُ مَا سَنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلی الله علیه و آله وَ الْبِدْعَةُ مَا أُحْدِثَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ وَ الْجَمَاعَةُ أَهْلُ الْحَقِّ وَ إِنْ کَانُوا قَلِیلًا وَ الْفِرْقَةُ أَهْلُ الْبَاطِلِ وَ إِنْ کَانُوا کَثِیراً.

📚 Ma'ani al-Akhbar, p. 155

A man came to Amir al-Mu'minin (peace be upon him) and said: Tell me about tradition, innovation, the community, and the sect!

He said:

Tradition is what the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his family) established and set as a practice,

And innovation is what was introduced after him,

And the community are the people of truth, even if they are few,

And the sect are the people of falsehood, even if they are many!

2⃣عَنْ فُضَيْلٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ يَقُولُ كُلُّ مَا لَمْ يَخْرُجْ مِنْ هَذَا الْبَيْتِ فَهُوَ بَاطِلٌ.

📚 Basa'ir al-Darajat, p. 531, Hadith 21

Fudayl says: I heard Imam Baqir (peace be upon him) say: Everything that does not come from this house (meaning the house of the Ahl al-Bayt, peace be upon them) is invalid!

3⃣ Imam Baqir and Imam Sadiq (peace be upon them both) said in a narration: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his family) said from the pulpit regarding Tarawih prayer and Duha prayer:

أَلَا وَ إِنَّ كُلَّ بِدْعَةٍ ضَلَالَةٌ وَ كُلَّ ضَلَالَةٍ سَبِيلُهَا إِلَى النَّارِ ثُمَّ نَزَلَ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ قَلِيلٌ فِي سُنَّةٍ خَيْرٌ مِنْ كَثِيرٍ فِي بِدْعَةٍ.

Be aware that every innovation is misguidance, and every misguidance leads to the Fire!

Then he descended from the pulpit while saying:

A little in tradition is better than a lot in innovation!

✅ Writing a need or drawing a need on the wall of the Kaaba, as some common people do, has no narrational evidence and is a clear innovation. Instead, one can recite the numerous supplications prescribed during tawaf, some of which can be found in the link below:
