The Prayer for the People of Innovation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is the ruling on leaving off the prayer for the people of innovation?
A: If the scholars leave it off in order to deter people from their deeds, that is appropriate, provided that their innovation does not warrant declaring them disbelievers. However, if their innovation is one that warrants declaring them disbelievers, such as the innovation of the Khawarij, the Mu'tazilah, or the Jahmiyyah, then one does not pray for them.
