We witness today numerous types of Bid’ah in Aqeedah (Eeman), in Ibadah (Worship), and in matters of Fiqh (Jurisprudence), that the Muslim Ummah suffers from without even knowing about it’s evil affects and outcomes, without even knowing that the deed that is being done out of piety and righteousness by our brother or sister is not enough to bring him the reward from Allah, a deed that has not been certified by our Shariah to be accepted, hence rendering that deed into a complete waste of time and effort.
The mother of the believers, ‘Aisha (RA) reported Muhammad (SAWS) said:
Whoever innovates into this affair of ours something that we have not commanded it is to be rejected.
(Bukhari and Muslim)
Jaabir (RA) narrated that Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) said:
To proceed: The best speech is the Book of Allah and the best guidance and example is that of Muhammad, and the worse of all things are the newly invented things (in the religion), for every innovation is a error and a misguidance.
(Muslim)
…Every innovation is a going astray and every going astray is in the fire.
(Tirmidhi)
