In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent and the Most Merciful
The referred practice is not Sunnah, rather, it is just a tradition which has no evidence or connection what so ever with the famous Qurun e Salasa (Three Eras) which witnessed all the Khair (goodness). Hence it is essential to refrain from indulging in such practices considering them to be necessary or to confine the rewards peculiar to this tradition.
Allah knows best.
