I could be wrong, but I don't think any of us currently participating in this thread are Scholars of Islam.

Hence, NONE of us have the right whatsoever to "label" your Salah as "shia ibadah", "bidah", etc.

In my personal opinion, the salah you described sounds beautiful, and if your intentions are only to worship Allah

, then you have nothing to worry about.

Furthermore, I would suggest,

, trying to memorize some longer Surahs to be able to stand in Qiyam for a long time without having to recite shorter surahs multiple times (though as far as I know, there is no harm in that either, as I read on Islamweb.net that the Prophet

used to recite more than one surah after Fatiha during Salah at times, especially during Tahajud).

For a great tool to help with memorization, try http://houseofquran.com. Their memorization tool is,

, just amazing. I have only known short Surahs all my life and during Ramadan I started memorizing Surah Ar-Rahman with the help of that tool. I am only doing 3-6 ayats every 2-3 days or so, but

it is a great feeling to be able to recite 28 ayats straight from one surah, which I wasn't able to do before.

To come back to my original point, I don't think anyone on this thread thus far, including and especially me, is qualified to call what you have done an act of the shia or bidah, etc.

Allah knows best.

All that is correct and good in this post is due to the grace of Allah

, anything else including errors is of my own.
