For, example i were to say that we are obsessed and put all our efforts in telling people that mawlid is Bidah and when it comes to opposing systems of Kufr we dont put much of our efforts .<br /><br />If someone replies to the above like below what should be prioritised.<br /><br />There is a difference in these two things, namely 'Mawlid' and 'Systems of kufr'. The biddatis celebrate mawlid expecting a reward or sawab from Allah. They think that its good deed for which they never repent or do taubah.<br /><br />On the other hand, 'Systems of kufr' are not practised with the same intention of reward or sawaab. Nobody considers systems of kufr to be a part of Islam. And the people whose silence you are blaming actually know that all these systems working for the west are Haram. Tell me which person thinks systems of kufr are part of our deen for which we expect sawab... <br /><br />You need to realize that one thing is BID'AH that is practised by millions of people who are expecting sawab. And the other thing is KUFR which everyone knows is haram. <br />So, If you practise an evil deed while knowing that its evil, then there are chances of repentance. But regarding things that are actually evil but the person doing it thinks he is doing good, then tell me why will he repent from it ? Eventually this is why some great scholars like Sufyaan Ath-Thawri rahimahullah used to say, 'Shaytaan likes bid'ah more than sins'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19500355.post-71409905064544226522011-07-11T17:29:32.488+00:002011-07-11T17:29:32.488+00:00In ibadat making something permissable as recommen...In ibadat making something permissable as recommended or recommended as obligatory is bidaIslamic Revivalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17200512096222987160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19500355.post-84106548157879453572011-07-11T17:24:15.333+00:002011-07-11T17:24:15.333+00:00Bida hasanah relates to the linguistic meaning of ...Bida hasanah relates to the linguistic meaning of bida and not the istilahi terminological meaning.

A couple of Questions i have is:<br /><br />1. What is the evidence or usuli reasoning for what you stated, ie that bid'ah only applies to a command that was accompanied by an exact explanation of the steps required? <br />2. For example, the hadith 'Every (kullu) bid'a is a misguidance ...' seems to indicate that ANY innovation is misguidance (many muslims take the literal meaning). Is this correct, and if not, why not? <br />3. Imam Nawawi and Imam 'Izz ibn Abdul-Salaam (as well as others) explain Bidah in a different way: they mention that Bid'ah can fall into the 5 types of ahkam Shari, and Imam Shafii mentions that there can be 'Bid'ah Hasanah' (Good Bid'ah) and 'Bidah Sayi'ah' (Sinful bid'ah). The examples they mention are often in 'IBAADAT (eg group dhikr and mawlid is Mandub bid'ah; adding dots/kasra/fatha/damma to script of Qur'an by later Khulafa is Wajib Bid'ah). <br />To my mind, the explanation of these scholars is not in contradiction to what you have explained, rather it seems to be a sub-classification of the Bidah in Ibaadat? <br />So do we agree with this subclassification? Please clarify. <br /><br />May Allah swt reward you abundantly.Salmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19500355.post-41445081732847435142009-12-01T11:00:55.154+00:002009-12-01T11:00:55.154+00:00in which category moulud sharif, raising hands whi...in which category moulud sharif, raising hands while making dua, lighting candles in shab-e-barat etc falls?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19500355.post-29892609557684332672009-11-27T08:53:39.485+00:002009-11-27T08:53:39.485+00:00Assalaamu 'alaikum
I have two questions:
Num...Assalaamu 'alaikum<br /><br />I have two questions:<br /><br />Number One:<br />I have heard it said that bid'ah is also linked to intention and understanding of the ahkam. For example, a person who at the end of every salah makes it a strict practice to recite Al-Fatihah and a portion of Qur'an after saying his salaams is not committing an act of bid'ah as long as he is aware that this is not a part of salah. Whereas if someone else did the same thing but believed it to be part of the salah then this would be bid'ah. <br /><br />Please comment on this.<br /><br />Number Two:<br />I have heard it said that the term bid'ah should only be used when something becomes rampant in society. For example, a person who consistently does three sujoods in his salah is doing haram. If this practice becomes common in a particular community then it is labelled bid'ah. Is there any basis for this?<br /><br />JazakAllah khair,<br />ws<br />Abu MaryamAbu Maryamnoreply@blogger.com
