Is the Tabligh and Da'wah Group considered among the people of innovation?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Is the Tabligh and Da'wah Group considered among the people of innovation?

Answer:
I told you to leave this talk. You must stick to the correct path. Advise those you see with faults, advise them, and explain to them, and you will have fulfilled what is required of you, if Allah wills. Yes. We do not say "so-and-so" or "the path." We say that the da'wah has a correct path that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) followed, indeed all the messengers followed it. It is beginning with 'aqidah and tawhid (the oneness of Allah), and then calling to the remaining pillars of Islam and to righteous deeds. But after the 'aqidah is correct, this is the correct da'wah. And whatever contradicts it is an incorrect da'wah.
Call it what you like. Tabligh or otherwise. Whatever contradicts the methodology of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), indeed the methodology of all the messengers, in calling to Allah—where they do not care about 'aqidah, do not call to it, and do not care about learning knowledge—this is a path that contradicts the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
