The Ruling on One Who Holds That There Is a Good Innovation

Question:
In days like these, whoever believes in the innovation of a specific place, and speaks of it as if it were an innovation, or a good innovation, merely by believing in it,

Answer:
In any case, the true Muslim is one who does not stop at calculation and the Sunnah, but rather what the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions and the noble generations did; this is what the one who seeks the truth wants. As for the one who seeks his own desires and blind imitation,
there is no remedy for him; that is what I told him. Because he does not want the truth; he wants his own desires, and what he loves, and what so-and-so says. And this has no end. If we bring this matter before the Book and the Sunnah and the practice of the Salaf, we find no basis for it in the actions of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, nor in the actions of the Companions and the Successors, nor in the actions of the blessed generations. We find no basis for it, and its proponents cannot establish a single letter of evidence for it from the Book of Allah, or the Sunnah of His Messenger, or the actions of His Caliphs, or the actions of His Companions, or the actions of the guaranteed generations. And as long as that is the case, it is an innovation. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Beware of newly invented matters," warning us against them. Beware, a warning . He ruled that every innovation in the religion is a bid'ah (religious innovation), and that every bid'ah is misguidance. So where does their "good innovation" come from? And the Messenger said
This is stubbornness against the truth and a contradiction of the clear evidence. . And whoever says, "This is a good innovation," does not bring forth anything good. Innovations in matters of custom, matters of nature, and permissible drinks—this is worship. And whatever new thing comes along becomes good, better than the first, from behind. This is not worship; this is from customs. But acts of worship are based on divine legislation; there is nothing, and no Islam, except what came in the Book and the Sunnah and the practice of the Companions and the Successors and the generations that followed. But we ask Allah for guidance for these people and a return to the right path, for whoever among them is mistaken and thinks he is on the truth, or is an imitator and does not know. We ask Allah for guidance for them. As for whoever among them is defiant and stubborn, Allah takes charge of his affair, and the proof has been established against him.
