Question:
The hadith:Sahih Muslim 1978b Does it include the one who praises the innovator?
Answer:
Sheltering means supporting and protecting him. If he supports him and protects him from the implementation of the hadd punishment or disciplinary action against him, and if he backs him or supports him, that is even greater.
Q: Is there anything added to these three?
The Shaykh: The others are included in them. I am not aware of anything that is excluded or deviates from them.

cursed him who accommodated an innovator
