The
Satanic Policy of Averting Man
from the Sunnah
Here, in relevance with this topic, we wish to mention as to how Satan
removes man from the Holy Prophet's
methods and his auspicious Sunnahs, and what stratagems he uses for them.
Since a man, by following the Holy Prophet
and thus covering the path of Paradise, can enjoy the Holy Prophet's
Company in Paradise.
Satan knows it for certain that he has to go to Hell but “since I have
deserved Hell - Allah forbid - because of Adam, I will take a large number
of Adam's progeny also to Hell with myself.” Hence, deflecting people from
following and conforming to the Holy Prophet
he calls them towards himself to follow him, and in place of the auspicious
and holy prophetic ways and methods offers his own methods and ways, which,
in the technical language of the Shari' ah are called "innovation" ("bidah").
Lexically, bid'ah means any new thing but in the language of the Shari'ah
that new thing is called bid'ah of which there may be no basis in religion
and yet may be ascribed to religion.
