or creating something totally new without there being any
precedence before it”. Thus Allah SWT said:

Islamic scholars of FIQH differ as to what this term encompasses -
vis-á-vis “SUNNAH”. Thus, there are some who are strictly rigid in
their definition and regard, everything not specifically done by the
Prophet s.a.a.w. to be all “BID’AH ” – therefore to them, all are these
regarded as reprehensible and rejected.
However, the majority Islamic scholars do not reject everything new
i.e. “BID’AH ” as reprehensible, but accept certain innovation which,
although not specifically done by the Prophet s.a.a.w., yet it has
valid SHAR’IAH basis – i.e. it is only ‘new’ in the specific, the type,
detail or method, but still manifesting the principles already
established by Qur’an and As-Sunnah.All Rights Reserved© Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2012)
Thus difference of opinion occur when Muslims respond to these
questions:
“Are all BID’AH detested and disallowed (forbidden)?”
“Can BID’AH be categorised as BID’AH HASSANAH (good innovation)
and BID’AH SAY-YI’AH (bad or reprehensible innovation)?”
“Are there any other ways of categorization of BID’AH adopted by
Islamic scholars of the SHARI’AH ? ”

Unfortunately, there are some who still insist that the “all ” here
must mean “every” new matter where the Prophet s.a.a.w. has never
done or known to have specifically approved. Thus they often declare
others as being astray because of their rigid definition of “BID’AH”. But,
does the word ( KULL) used in Qur’an and Ahadith always
means “every” without exception ?
Majority of Islamic scholars do not insist on this one rigid literal
interpretation. This is because there are exception in the Qur’an where
the term “KULL” used does not necessarily mean “every ”.
