Kind: captions Language: en [Music] Academy. [Music] Alhamdulillah. Islamic creed level three and we're still talking about alida innovations in the religion and it's very important for us to learn these principles that we can understand things and ba and and and make things based on these principles not just understanding some examples here or there. Uh one of the things that we need to discuss is the different types of alida. So uh even though all of the bid is haram is forbidden and it's means of deviation but some of it is more forbidden than others some of it is more deviation than others like the sins. So that's why when they classified the bid to make it easy for a person to understand and to recognize. So they made different classifications to it whether it's something that takes a person outside the fold is versus not. So there's that would take the person outside the f of Islam as we will talk about them inshallah versus the that is not in that same category. There's another way of categorizing things in which they looked at the that was whether it has a foundation in the religion or not or it doesn't. So they call it meaning that it's never been even mentioned in the dean of Allah subhana wa ta'ala versus the one that many people confuses is when the original uh ruling of it that it's part of the dean but they innovated something in it like vik for example as a very clear example to that as we will talk about it inshall so when we look at the first categories of ala which is with regards to whether it's mukaf or not mukafir whether it takes the person outside the f of Islam by committing major shik for example like people making around the graves of the righteous ones and they would turn to them and make dua to them not to Allah subhana wa ta'ala and they seek their refuge you know and not Allah subhana tala or to slaughter to them and not for the sake of Allah subhana tala of course this is a bad done to other than Allah Subhana tala. So this is the itself is make you know takes the person outside the fold of Islam and it's innovation in the religion. Other than that if it's not an act that would make the person do a major shik and we talked about the major shik before then it's but it's not in the same category. So it's in the categories of sins but it's even worse than the sins because it again in general the bid is worse than sins but it's not something that would take the person outside the food of Islam like celebrating mids or the way that the people make and dua together or collective or and they add to it certain things. This is of course does not take the person outside the fold of Islam and it's important to know that so that we don't fall into what we'll talk about it inshallah next which is the or calling people disbelievers or things like this we have to put things in the right perspective. The second type of categories as we talked about it is which this is something that requires more knowledge and more understanding. the that they call it the real meaning that it's completely innovated from every different aspect to it. There's no there's no root to it whatsoever in the deen of Allah subhana wa ta'ala that means it's been just invented from nowhere you know for example if someone would create among the the Muslim for example the to seclude oneself in matters of monastery type of of things you know this is something that the people of the book they invented in which Allahh did not ordain it upon them and it's mentioned in you know for For example, someone would stay away from getting married and meaning that he would do that as a as a way to come closer to Allah by staying away from marriage when he is someone that can get married and he's it's feasible for him to do so and he's not that it's he's not getting married but the fact that he's leaving it as a way to to get closer to Allah. So this is where the is here that he's making it as abandoning marriage as which is of course against the sunnah the way of the prophet when he said and I marry the women and whoever stay away from my sunnah he's not one of me one of us so also where people you know imitated the ways of others where they would torture themselves with all kinds of torture like people beating themselves up and the 10th of Muharam for example or doing things like staying in the garbage containers as a way to humble themselves for example as they would claim uh or things of that nature or they would whail and scream uh thinking that this is something would get them to Allahh there's no basis to it whatsoever in the dean of al-Islam and it's of course obviously something of bida innovations in the dean uh building uh domes on top of the graves as a way to seek the pleasure of Allah subhana wa ta'ala. Um some would for example be in Hajj in the day of not infa in other places you know or initiate things of worship places where they would go to as a worship of Allah subhana tala other than what Allah subhana ta ordained us to do traveling to places traveling to massid having peers the these types of things as a way of innovating in the dean of Islam without any uh foundation to it or any uh basis to it whatsoever. which is a very obvious thing to those who understand the religion. The second type of the same category here is where sometimes people get confused about it and they don't understand it very well which is they call it that means it's added on. What is meant by that is that when you look at it from one perspective, it looks like it's an act of worship to Allah subhana wa tala. That is part of the de of Islam. It's called for example and the of Allah subhana tala. There are so many verses in the Quran that encourages us to make the prophet would make and the sahab and the of the deen and the importance of that. So when you look at it, they're making but then you know when you look at it from a different perspective is that they would make the in a way that is not the way of the prophetat wasallam. So it has some uh something to do with the dean but it's innovation in the deen not according to the way of the prophetatam. So uh for example you know when people have these types of salawat of the night of a specific salah in the night of the 15th of you know you know in general salah is a good thing to make salah is a beautiful thing optional salah and the prophetat he said the salah is the best thing the best subject whoever is able to do more and more of the salah, let him do so. And let me explain this so that we understand what that means. If you decided to pray at a time when the salah is not forbidden, for example, after you feel like making after mah this is beautiful make salah. Salah is the best subject. But once a person would believe that if you make certain numbers of after or in that specific day without an evidence in the Quran and the sunnah of the prophetat wasam then that action becomes innovation in the religion a person is changing in the religion or the night of the 10th of alam or the night of the 15th of Shaan specific days or the first week in for example then this what makes it bad. So, and if someone would tell them why you're doing something like this, this is innovation in the deen, they would say we're making salah. We're not playing. But then it is still because this is not something that is according to the sunnah of the prophetat. And we have even from the companions, but maybe we'll talk about that later in you know sometimes people for example they would recite 100,000 times and they would give it a title. They would say This is the way to save yourself from the major one right this is it's anyway but it's in the category of why this category is mentioned to understand how to classify but it's yes it's so reciting is a is a beautiful thing and Allahh love those who do so but then for someone to make it in a specific way and this is where it becomes comes into the categories of bida you know and there is evidences where the prophetat wasam of course great evidences to talk about this matter so this is something to be warned against and that's why many of the to the ways of the sufis that it comes under these types of innovations in the religion of al- Islam so we need to make sure that we understand these principles that will protect us from the vida anything that we do in matters of dean matters of action matters of we have to uh test it whether it's according to the Quran and the sunnah of the prophetatam and if a person either he's a person of knowledge or we ask the people of knowledge those who we trust the knowledge in the religion and they follow the way of the prophetatam and when we sayham that means we follow the prophetatam and following the prophetatam in what he did and what he didn't do so you stay away from what he didn't do alsoatam Because the best guidance is the guidance of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam. And as mentioned before when it comes to everything is forbidden unless we have an evidence evidence or evidences that this is part of the dean of Allahhanaa and knowing that these bida innovations are evil and it spreads evil and it changes in the religion in the life of the people and to protect ourselves from these uh you know they they innovate in the dean till they make the dean make it like a fairy tale something that is of no real reality to it whatsoever. And also when it comes to uh the the bida which is you know major bid uh and it's referring to the foundations of the dean or the general terms in the dean of Islam which they give it the title of that for example for someone to deny the sunnah of the prophetat to say we'll follow the Quran only and they call themselves this is a that takes a person outside the fold of alam if they deny the sunnah completely and it's ka because it refers to the overall understanding of the dean of Islam by necessity that it's not permissible for someone to deny for example the sunnah of the prophetat in its totality or to say that we won't take the alad that did not reach the level of with the different categories of the hadith of the prophetatam so this is also something that is in the categories of ala all of that is forbidden and we ask Allahh to protect us from ala innovations in the dean and this is brief of course and to practice and to understand and to learn from the people of knowledge of these types of bid to avoid it we ask Allahh to protect us we continue with more matters of and for [Music] me to Foreign speech.
