Bismillaah Al-Hamdulillaah Why People Invent Bid'ah, according to Mu'aadh ibn Jabal (radiallaahu 'anhu) Mu'aadh ibn Jabal (radiallaahu 'anhu) used to say:
| quote: |
Ahead of you are times of trials (fitan) in which there will be much wealth and in which the Qur`an will be opened and taken (read) by believers and hypocrites, men and women, young and old and freemen and slaves. At that time, it is likely that there will be people who will say, "Why aren't the people following me when I have read the Qur`an? They will not follow me until I invent something else." So, beware of everything that is innovated (in religion), for those things that are innovated are misguidance. |

Subhanak Allaahuma wa bihamdika ash-hadu anlaa illaaha illa anta astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk If I said anything correct, then it is from Allaah (subhanahu wa taa'ala), and if I erred, then that is from me and shaytan.
