The statement of 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), "This is a good innovation," does it not indicate that there is a good innovation and a bad innovation?

The questioner : The meaning of the statement of 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) "This is a good innovation"

The Shaykh : Yes, it will come to us in the author's words; he refutes it, and it is clear that 'Umar intended that this [practice] was forgotten or that this Sunnah, which is gathering under an imam for the night prayer in Ramadan, was left during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), the time of Abu Bakr, and the beginning of 'Umar's caliphate. Then it was revived, so it is an innovation in the sense that it had been left before that.
The reader: In *Iqtida' al-Sirat al-Mustaqim* "The fourth is that his statement

Every innovation is misguidance.

كل بدعة ضلالة

and beware of you "

Every innovation is misguidance.

كل بدعة ضلالة
