"مَنْ أَحْيَا سُنَّةً مِنْ سُنَّتِى قَد أُمِيتَتْ بَعْدِى فإِنَّ لَهُ مِنَ الأجْرِ مِثْلَ منْ عَمِلهَا منَ النَّاسَ لا يَنْقُصُ من أجُورِ النَّاسِ شَيئًا، وَمَنْ ابْتَدَعَ بِدْعةً لَا يرْضَاهَا اللهُ وَرَسُولُه، فإِنَّ عَليهِ مِثْلَ إِثْمٍ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنَ النَّاسِ، لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ آثَامِ النَّاسِ شَيئًا".

narrated from his father, from his grandfather that the Prophet ﷺ said to Bilal bin Al-Harith: "Know." He said: "I am ready to know O Messenger of Allah!" He ﷺ said: "That indeed whoever revives a Sunnah from my Sunnah which has died after me, then for him is a reward similar to whoever acts upon it without diminishing anything from their rewards. And whoever introduces an erroneous innovation which Allah is not pleased with, nor His Messenger, then he shall receive sins similar to whoever acts upon it, without that diminishing anything from the sins of the people.'"

"My father told me narrating from my grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever revives a Sunnah of mine, which people then act upon, will have a reward equivalent to that of those who act upon it, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest. And whoever introduces an innovation (Bid'ah) that is acted upon, will have a burden of sins equivalent to that of those who act upon it, withot that detracting from the burden of those who act upon it in the slightest.'"
