The Prophet (sallAllahu alaihi wa sallam) prohibited innovating into the Religion of Allah and he warned against al-bidah (innovation) and he clarified to his Ummah that every innovation in the Religion of Allah is misguidance. So he (sallAllahu alaihi wa sallam) spoke in the hadith of al-Irbad Ibn Sariyah (radiyAllahu anhu), which was related by Abu Dawud (d.275H) and al-Tirmidhi (d.274H) who said, “An acceptable authentic hadith.” He (i e. al-Irbad) said, “The Messenger of Allah (sallAllahu alaihi wa sallam) admonished us with an eloquent admonition. The hearts trembled due to it and the eyes shed tears due to it. So we said “O Messenger of Allah! It is as if this is a farewell admonition, so advise us.” He said, “I advise you with the taqwa (fear, reverence) of Allah. And listen and obey, even if the one who is appointed over you in authority is a slave. Indeed, whosoever from amongst you lives after me, then he shall see much differing. So stick to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the Rightly-Guided Caliphs after me. Hold onto it with your molar teeth and beware of newly invented matters, since every innovation is misguidance.
