Islamic creed level three and we're
still talking about ala innovations in
the religion which is something that is
condemned an evil action for someone to
innovate in matters of the dean to
initiate something in the dean of Allah
subhana ta that is not based on
evidences on the Quran and the sunnah of
the prophetatam. We talked about the
definition of it and the danger of the
bed and the innovations and some of the
examples we'll talk about it inshallah
today just some of the examples
otherwise encyclopedia to compile in it
the initiated might be sufficient uh
because again people can do things and
people would initiate things especially
when there is ignorance prevails and
there's no teaching of matters of the
dean and the principles of the dean this
is the way of el in which would save the
people and make them initiate things in
matters of belief in matters of and
these innovations in the deen. Some of
these examples and just again this is
nothing but examples is when people
would specify a certain act of worship
for a specific time or in a specific
place or certain numbers of or numbers
ofar or a certain situation or a way
that they would make this act of so so
many different things. For example, as
he mentioned that from these or these
innovations of the dean that people
would have certain ways of doing acts of
like making in a together form
collective
all with the same voice together
chanting together making seeking the
pleasure of Allahh in doing so and this
is something that the prophetat wasam
didn't do the
didn't do. So uh for someone to initiate
a way of making the it's not just about
the being part of the dean of Islam
which is the of Allah but also the how
to make the also has to be according to
the way of the prophetatam
also having the mid the day of the
birthday of the prophetatam taking that
as a celebration and the like of that
which is again none of the early
generations of Islam done that and it's
something that was initi appreciated
later. So u the same thing with regards
to a specific in a specific time an act
of worship at a specific time uh for
example fasting
in a specific day like the 15th of
Shabban specifically and spending the
night of that night of the 15th of
Shabban with even though some of the
early generations of Islam they used to
give more attention to that day but
there's no evidence whatsoever that the
prophetat would do something special of
in that particular night and fasting the
13th and the 14th and the 15th is a good
thing. It's from the sunnah. Fasting as
much as a person can from the month of
Shabban is from the sunnah of the
prophetat. But singling out that
specific day with the night prayer and
then they have special for example
special dua to be done at that
particular night. All of that is from
the bida innovations in the dean and uh
you know whether it's something specific
to times where to make for example in
the middle or the 15th of Rajab or the
last of Ramadan they would specify
certain or certain acts of worship that
they would do in the last J of Ramadan
or when people for example make
in the night of J or they get together
to make in the night of Ja and the like
of this all of that innovations in the
deen. So it's specific time, specific
place, specific
way that they would perform the all of
that is in the innovations in matters of
dean. And as we heard before that the
prophet wasallam said
every is deviation. There's no exception
whatsoever.
uh also when it comes to that specific
place where people would choose a place
to do certain acts of that it's not the
way of the prophetat wasallam like for
example those who would go to the cave
of and the cave of
and they would pray for example
in two
two in the first two in the second these
things the prophetat was never done the
companions the early generations of
Islam you know and also there is
narrations where it shows how the Sah
they were very firm when it comes to
those who would do something the
prophetat wasam didn't do they would
forbid it and they would forbade it with
such a a severe way something that to
stop anyone from adding to the religion
it's not like the sinful acts a person
would repent to Allah subhana wa ta'ala
but the danger of the bid is that it
changes the religion among the people so
for example when Muawi
He would make around thea and he was
touching the all the pillars of thea as
we know that we have the one that points
to and the one that has the black stone
and the one the many one the prophetat
would touch it and then without saying
anything and then
the prophetat would kiss the black stone
and he would say but as people know but
Then
Abbas
he asked him why are you touching all of
the aren all of the different corners of
the Kaa and the prophetat wasam didn't
used to do that so when he said to him
nothing of the house of Allah should be
deserted the
replied by saying
indeed you have in the messenger
sallallahu alaihi wasallam the best
example
He said to him, "You are truthful about
this." Uh some of the people they would
even make salah by the graves of the
righteous ones and this is
where they do in the categories of
worshiping Allah subhana tala by the
grave of a righteous person or Allahh
who's best also what they say or what
they do. Uh some of these bida has to do
with numbers where people for example
would do it and would prescribe it to
others. If you recite surah for example
40 days with the intention of relieving
yourself from all kinds of distresses
and things of that nature or prescribing
for people to recite fat 100 times this
numbers and and so on and this is as
whether it's or others but just to
specify numbers like this where did you
come up with this if someone recites any
verses of the Quran any suras of the
Quran and he likes the surah and he
recited every day. No problem, no harm.
But to make it as if there is something
special in this and a person would
prescribe it to others. This is where it
gets into the categories of bida
innovations in the religion
or to specify a specific verse to cure
certain diseases you know and they would
also prescribe for people. If you have
the pain in this part of your body then
you recite these verses how many numbers
of times and things like this. If they
tell them read Quran and use the Quran
as means of that's fine. That's not bad.
But the is when they specify when they
say these suras these verses with a
specific number of times a specific time
of the day things of that nature. The
same thing is when people would do
innovations as we mentioned with a
specific way. So for example, they would
turn the lights off and they would get
together especially with a specific
person and they would recite things that
is not Quran, not dua, things that they
made up of that has no basis to it in
the Quran and in the sunnah of the
prophetat and some of the people those
who do not understand the Arabic
language you will be surprised of how
sometimes they would introduce words of
and associating partners with Allah. and
they would say it and many of them would
not even know what they're saying. So
all of these things are just examples of
different categories of things. So
whether it's a specific time, a specific
place, counting things or repeating
things in a specific numbers of times or
a way that they do things as we said
because one of the one of the doubtful
matters of these people of bida they say
well the of Allah subhana ta is part of
the dean. So we are allowed to make vik
to Allahhana tala. The answer is yes.
But how do you make vik? It has to be
according also to the way of the
prophetatam.
The prophetat wasam did not jump up and
down. He did not stand with the sahaba
holding hands and moving themselves to
the right or to the left. They did not
make with with uh you know pronouns or
you know things like words that is not
from the Quran and the sunnah of the
prophetatam
or repeating the names and attributes of
Allah subhana wa tala for thousands of
times. The prophetat wasam never done
something like this. So this is
something definitely to be avoided and
it's bidder and it's more beloved to el
than sins because people they become
away and away from Allah subhana wa tala
because the root of it is what they're
following other than the prophetatam
what they have been commanded to follow
to follow the messenger sallallahu
alaihi wasallam stop here inshallah we
continue with more subjects of
innovations Dean
