The Ruling on Dividing Religious Innovation (Bid'ah) into Good and Bad

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: You mentioned (may Allah preserve you) that dividing bid'ah (religious innovation) into good bid'ah and bad bid'ah is an incorrect matter. He says some scholars of knowledge say...

The Shaykh:
It is false, it is not incorrect, it is false. Yes.

The questioner:
It is a false matter. He says some scholars of knowledge say that this division is intended for jurisprudential innovations. Is his statement correct?

The Shaykh:
Innovations.

The questioner:
Jurisprudential.

The Shaykh:
There are no innovations in fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence), my brother. There are no innovations in fiqh. And this is a statement I do not know and I do not know about it. This is the first time I have heard it.

The questioner:
And like (may Allah preserve you) he says regarding the second adhan (call to prayer).

The Shaykh:
Or the first adhan is an innovation, my brother. It is from the Sunnah of the Caliphs, it is not an innovation. The second adhan, which he says is an innovation, he is the innovator. This is from the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs. Yes, because the one who ordered it was Uthman ibn Affan, the third Caliph. He is the one who ordered it, so it is from the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs. Yes.
