Re: Bid^a - (Innovation) 2 types, Good and Evil As Scholars stated.
Wa Alaykum Assalam,
Dear brother Faisal,
Know that salaf are the true followers of the scholars of Islam that lived in the first 300 years after the Prophet. And Wahabies who now use that name are doing so to cover up for their black history.
And know without a doubt that True salaf scholars say opposite of what wahabies say.
Simple proof for that is:
Imam Ahmad says whoever believes Allah is a body commits blasphemy.
Wahabies and Ibn Taymiah Say: Allah is as big as the throne sitting on it.
The true belief is that Allah exists without being in a place or direction, since he existed so eternally.
As for Bid^ah, only wahabies take the hadith of the Prophet that “Kullu” means every single instance.
Where as scholars of Islam, they say Kullu here means most. Why? Because not every single thing done after the prophet is misgudance.
WHo said that:
Imam Shafi^iy, Imam Nawawiy, Ibn Hajar the ultimate hafith and many others from Salaf and Khalaf.
Examples are:
Reading Qur’an with dots was a good innovation not done during the Propet or even Sahahbah. Or 2nd athan and many others.. and Milad is one of them.
Imam Suyooti confirmed that what is done in Milad-un-Nabiy from reciting Qur’an and Praising the Prophet and Briefing about his life (Sallallahuu Alayhi Wa Sallam) is a good and rewardable act.
Allah knows best.
