Bid'ah (religious innovation) and its danger to a man's faith
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I move on to another questioner, Abu Haytham, who asks about bid'ah (religious innovation) and its danger to a man's faith.
Answer:
Bid'ah is whatever is newly introduced into the religion that is not part of it. Its danger is great because it changes the Sunnah. The Sunnah and bid'ah do not coexist; one must be either an innovator or a follower of the Sunnah. The Sunnah and bid'ah do not coexist except that one excludes the other. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
