Is worship of Allah by means other than what the Messenger ﷺ prescribed rejected?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: They say, "And do not worship Allah except by what He has prescribed." What is meant by the phrase "except by what He has prescribed"?

Answer:
By what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) prescribed. So worship of Allah by means other than what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) prescribed is rejected, because it is a bid'ah (religious innovation). Every bid'ah is misguidance. Yes.
