Shaykh
ul-Islaam Ibn Taymeeyah (d.728 A.H.) -Rahimullaah- said : Whoever opposes the
clear Book, and the elaborate Sunnah or that which the Salaf of the Ummah held
a consensus about, and this opposition is without a valid reason, then this person
is dealt in the same manner in which the People of Bida’ are dealt with.’
[From:
‘Majmoo’ al-Fatawa Ibn Taymeeyah’ 35/414]
Shaykh
ul-Islaam Ibn Taymeeyah (d.728 A.H.) -Rahimullaah- said : Whoever worshipped
with an act of worship which is not obligatory nor recommended, and he believed
that it was obligatory or recommended, then he is a misguided Mubtada’, and
this is an evil Bida’ not a good Bida’, and the imams of the Deen are in
agreement about this, since Allaah is not worshipped except with that which is
obligatory or recommended.’
[From: ‘Majmoo’ al-Fatawa Ibn Taymeeyah’
1/160]
