Question:
The Shaykh is with us, and this questioner says: What is the meaning of this saying, "Whoever sits with the people of innovation (bid'ah) and reports from them"? What does it mean?
Answer:
By Allah, I have not heard this, but sitting with the people of innovation is not permissible, because one is influenced by them. A person should keep his distance from the people of innovation and religious innovations (bid'ah) so that he is not influenced by them and becomes one of the innovators. Yes.

May Allah reward you
