The Most Evil of Things Are Innovations In Religion

27 February 2010 No Comment

The Prophet (Sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) said:

“The most truthful of speech is the Book of Allah and the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad, and the most evil of things are those which are newly-invented.”


And he (peace be upon him) said:

“Whoever innovates anything in this matter of ours (i.e., Islam), that is not part of it will have it rejected.”

Narrated by al-Bukhaari, no. 2697; Muslim, no. 1718
