Every Innovation Is A Misguidance
The Prophet (saw) said:
“…Beware of newly invented matters, for every invented matter is an innovation and every innovation is a going astray, and every going astray is in Hell-fire.” (1)
Likewise ‘Abdullaah Ibn Mas’ood – may Allaah have mercy upon him - said:
“Follow and do not innovate, for indeed you have been sufficed, and every innovation is misguidance.” (2)
Also, Ibn ‘Umar (ra) mentioned:
“Every biddah is a misguidance, even if the people see it as something good.” (3)
And then some people bring ‘proof’ from the khalaf saying there is something as ‘good biddah’?
