Building Acts of Worship on the Command
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, are acts of worship built upon the command, O Shaykh?
Answer:
There is no doubt, no, there is no legislated act of worship without a command from the Lawgiver. Acts of worship are based on textual evidence, as the scholars have mentioned; nothing is performed from them except with evidence from the Book and the Sunnah. And if one performs something without evidence, it is a bid'ah (religious innovation). Yes.
