A bid’a is a new matter … Simple as that … Classification of bid’a are brought out of analysing the Sunnah …

A bid’a that is reprehensible is that new thing done because:

a) it is said to have been advised by RasoolAllah/salaf, etc, when in fact it was not.
b) it attempts to re-prioritise or negate the original Islamic message and spirit of the message.
c) it leads one away from Allah (SWT) and/or RasoolAllah (SAW) and towards the nufs.

A bid’a that is not reprehensible rather good is that new matter which:

a) does nothing to hide the fact that it is a new matter in form, but not in content.
b) It facilitates the remembrance and love of Allah (SWT) and RasoolAllah (SAW).
c) Facilitates other approved aspects of Islam through it observance, without re-prioritising or artificially inflating its own importance.

This is a more wholesome guideline …

As you can see Qur’an collection, Taraweeh, Mawlid and Niqab fit in the last category nicely.

can you plz explain how Taraweeh is bidah same as Mawlid?
