Question:
And that he finds something of his rights believed in, or that he has a need in the hadith, and that he preaches to the living and the sinners and the qibal.
Answer:
Yes, al-hadath means bid'ah (religious innovation)Sahih Muslim 1718a or sheltering a mubtadi' (innovator), meaning one who enters the city and protects him and takes responsibility for him, and Allah spreads the bid'ah over him. May the curse of Allah, the angels, and all people be upon him. Likewise, one who has a hadd (fixed punishment) imposed on him, if he has a hadd and defends him and prevents the execution of the hadd upon him, this is sheltering an innovator. May the curse of Allah, the angels, and all people be upon him.
