Asalaamu Alaikum, According to Sheikh Mufti Ebrahim Desai:
The word Wazifa literally means amount. The word is generally used as a descriptive noun for specified wages, gifts, specific recitals, etc. Allah Ta'ala has mentioned in many places in the Qur'aan the recitals (Wazifas) of many prophets at the time of their difficulties. Such recitals are significant and beneficial in removing one from similar difficulties.
In a discourse Maulāna Ashraf Ali Thānvi rehmatullāhi alayh said regarding Wazifa's:
One person has sent a letter that he is indebted and needs an effective
wazīfa. I replied that there is no better
wazīfa in effect than Dua’.
People have stopped asking Allāh. The connection between the slave and
Allāh has weakened a lot. The perception of people in this matter is very corrupt, and one thing which is even more harmful than this is when the
wazīfa does not work, they start to doubt the ability of the verses of
Allāh. This further corrupts ones belief.
All this is because of the ignorant
Āmilīn (expert in issuing
wazīfa). All they learn is to give a
wazīfa for every little thing. They do not even see if the person is capable or not. Over and above that, while they issue these
wazāif they use such a confident tone that the questioner becomes sure that the problem will be solved through this measure, and there is no doubt in it.
Now if what was destined is contrary to what they hoped for, then the belief of such an individual comes in great danger. His belief in the verse of
Allāh weakens. The result of such a weakened belief ought to be that the dua’ doesn’t get accepted.
Look, the matter is very simple. If we give $2.00 to someone per month and then we find out that he doubts our ability to give him that money, then such bad thoughts (regarding us) will cause us not to give him any money at all. But
Allāh is so merciful that He hears all the hue and cry and yet continues to give the sustenance. Surely,
Allāh is most merciful.

So turn to Allah in dua for that is the best wazifa (prescription) of all.
And Allah knows best in all matters
