from his father that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever starts a good tradition which is followed, then for him is a reward, and the likes of their rewards of whoever follows him, there being nothing diminished from their rewards. And whoever starts a bad tradition which is followed, then for him is the sin, and the likes of the sins of whoever follows him, there being nothing diminished from their sins."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةَ خَيْرٍ فَاتُّبِعَ عَلَيْهَا فَلَهُ أَجْرُهُ وَمِثْلُ أُجُورِ مَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ غَيْرَ مَنْقُوصٍ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةَ شَرٍّ فَاتُّبِعَ عَلَيْهَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهُ وَمِثْلُ أَوْزَارِ مَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ غَيْرَ مَنْقُوصٍ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever introduces a good practice that is followed, he will receive its reward and a reward equivalent to that of those who follow it, without that detracting from their reward in their slightest. And whoever introduces a bad practice that is followed, he will receive its sin and a burden of sin equivalent to that of those who follow it, without that detracting from their burden in the slightest.'"

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً فَعُمِلَ بِهَا كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهَا وَمِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا لاَ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً فَعُمِلَ بِهَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهَا وَوِزْرُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ لاَ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا

"A man came to the Prophet, who encouraged the people to give charity to him. A man said: 'I have such and such,' and there was no one left in that gathering who did not give him something in charity, to a greater or lesser extent. The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever initiates a good practice that is followed, he will receive a perfect reward for that, and a reward equivalent to that of those who follow it, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest. And whoever introduces a bad practice that is followed, he will receive the complete burden of sin for that, and a burden of sin equivalent to that of those who follow it without that detracting from their burden in the slightest.'"

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَحَثَّ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ عِنْدِي كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ فَمَا بَقِيَ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ رَجُلٌ إِلاَّ تَصَدَّقَ عَلَيْهِ بِمَا قَلَّ أَوْ كَثُرَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنِ اسْتَنَّ خَيْرًا فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهُ كَامِلاً وَمِنْ أُجُورِ مَنِ اسْتَنَّ بِهِ وَلاَ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنِ اسْتَنَّ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ فَعَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهُ كَامِلاً وَمِنْ أَوْزَارِ الَّذِينَ اسْتَنَّ بِهِ وَلاَ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever introduces a good practice that is followed after him, will have a reward for that and the equivalent of their reward, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest. Whoever introduces an evil practice that is followed after him, will bear the burden of sin for that and the equivalent of their burden of sin, without that detracting from their burden in the slightest.'"

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً فَعُمِلَ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهَا وَمِثْلُ أُجُورِهِمْ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً فَعُمِلَ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهُ وَمِثْلُ أَوْزَارِهِمْ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا

"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.'"

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ أَحْيَا سُنَّةً مِنْ سُنَّتِي فَعَمِلَ بِهَا النَّاسُ كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا لاَ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنِ ابْتَدَعَ بِدْعَةً فَعُمِلَ بِهَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ أَوْزَارُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا لاَ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا شَيْئًا

"I heard the Messenger of Allah say: 'Whoever revives a Sunnah of mine that dies out after I am gone, he will have a reward equivalent to that of those among the people who act upon it, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest. Whoever introduces an innovation (Bid'ah) with which Allah and his Messenger are not pleased, he will have a (burden of) sin equivalent to that of those among the people who act upon it, without that detracting from their sins in the slightest.'"

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ أَحْيَا سُنَّةً مِنْ سُنَّتِي قَدْ أُمِيتَتْ بَعْدِي فَإِنَّ لَهُ مِنَ الأَجْرِ مِثْلَ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنَ النَّاسِ لاَ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِ النَّاسِ شَيْئًا وَمَنِ ابْتَدَعَ بِدْعَةً لاَ يَرْضَاهَا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ فَإِنَّ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلَ إِثْمِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنَ النَّاسِ لاَ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ آثَامِ النَّاسِ شَيْئًا

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever introduces a good practice that is followed, he will receive its reward and a reward equivalent to that of those who follow it, without that detracting from their reward in their slightest. And whoever introduces a bad practice that is followed, he will receive its sin and a burden of sin equivalent to that of those who follow it, without that detracting from their burden in the slightest.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 203)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً عُمِلَ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُنْقَصَ مِنْ أَجْرِهِ شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُ وِزْرِ مَنْ يعَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُنْقَصَ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِم شَيْءٌ»

Whoever introduces an evil practice that is followed after him, will bear the burden of sin for that and the equivalent of their burden of sin, without that detracting from their burden in the slightest.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 207)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةَ ضَلَالٍ فَاتُّبِعَ عَلَيْهَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُ أَوْزَارِهِمْ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةَ هُدًى فَاتُّبِعَ عَلَيْهَا كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أُجُورِهِمْ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ

(Using translation from Ibn Mājah 204)

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَحَثَّ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ عِنْدِي كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ فَمَا بَقِيَ فِي الْمَجْلِسِرَجُلٌ إِلَّا قَدْ تَصَدَّقَ بِمَا قَلَّ أَوْ كَثُرَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ سَنَّ خَيْرًا فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهُ كَامِلًا وَمِنْ أُجُورِ مَنْ اسْتَنَّ بِهِ لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ اسْتَنَّ شَرًّا فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ فَعَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهُ كَامِلًا وَمِنْ أَوْزَارِ الَّذِي اسْتَنَّ بِهِ لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا

[AI] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever establishes a good tradition in Islam will receive its reward and the reward of those who follow it, without decreasing anything from their rewards. And whoever establishes a bad tradition in Islam will bear its sin and the sin of those who follow it, without decreasing anything from their sins."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ سَنَّ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهَا وَأَجْرُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْيُنْتَقَصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ سَنَّ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً كَانَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهَا وَوِزْرُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُنْتَقَصَ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْءٌ

[AI] A group of people from the Bedouin Arab tribe came to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ while they were seeking the spoils of war. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ urged the people to give charity, but they hesitated until it could be seen on his face. Then a man from the Ansar (helpers of the Prophet) brought a piece of silver and threw it, and the people followed suit until it was known on his face. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever starts a good practice and is followed by others, will receive the reward of it and the equivalent reward of those who follow it, without any decrease in their own rewards. And whoever starts an evil practice and is followed by others, will carry the burden of it and the burden of those who follow it, without any decrease in their own burdens."

أَنَّ قَوْمًا أَتَوْا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ مُجْتَابِي النِّمَارِ فَحَثَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ النَّاسَ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ فَأَبْطَئُوا حَتَّى رُئِيَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِهِ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ بِقِطْعَةِ تِبْرٍ فَطَرَحَهَا فَتَتَابَعَ النَّاسُ حَتَّى عُرِفَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِهِ فَقَالَ مَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً فَعُمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهَا وَمِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُنْتَقَصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً عُمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهَا وَوِزْرُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا وَلَا يُنْقِصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever introduces a good practice that is followed, he will receive its reward and a reward equivalent to that of those who follow it, without that detracting from their reward in their slightest.

(Using translation from Ibn Mājah 203)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يَسُنُّ عَبْدٌ سُنَّةً صَالِحَةً يَعْمَلُ بِهَا مَنْ بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا لَا يُنْقَصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَلَا يَسُنُّ عَبْدٌ سُنَّةَ سُوءٍ يَعْمَلُ بِهَامَنْ بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهَا وَوِزْرُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا لَا يُنْقَصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْءٌ

[AI] A man asked during the time of the Prophet ﷺ, so the people held back. Then, a man gave him something, so he gave it to the people. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever starts a good practice, he will have its reward and the reward of those who follow him, without their rewards being decreased in any way. And whoever starts an evil practice, he will bear its burden and the burden of those who follow him, without their burdens being decreased in any way."

سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَمْسَكَ الْقَوْمُ ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْطَاهُ فَأَعْطَى الْقَوْمُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَنْ سَنَّ خَيْرًا فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهُ وَمِنْ أُجُورِ مَنْ يَتَّبِعُهُ غَيْرَ مُنْتَقِصٍ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ سَنَّ شَرًّا فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهُ وَمِنْ أَوْزَارِ مَنْ يَتَّبِعُهُ غَيْرَ مُنْتَقِصٍ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا

[AI] A questioner came during the time of the Prophet ﷺ and asked, so the people remained silent. Then a man gave him and then the people also gave him. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever seeks goodness and gives it to him, then he will have his reward and the rewards of those who followed him will not be decreased in anything. And whoever seeks evil and gives it to him, then he bears its burden and the burdens of those who followed him will not be decreased in anything." Huzaifah ibn Al-Yaman recited, "A soul will know what it has put forth and kept behind" [Al-Infitar 5].

قَامَ سَائِلٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَ فَسَكَتَ الْقَوْمُ ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْطَاهُ فَأَعْطَاهُ الْقَوْمُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَنِ اسْتَنَّ خَيْرًا فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ فَلَهُ أَجْرُهُ وَمِثْلُ أُجُورِ مَنْ تَبِعَهُ غَيْرَ مُنْتَقِصٍ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنِ اسْتَنَّ شَرًّا فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ فَعَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهُ وَمِثْلُ أَوْزَارِ مَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ غَيْرَ مُنْتَقِصٍ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا» قَالَ وَتَلَا حُذَيْفَةُ بْنُ الْيَمَانِ {عَلِمَتْ نَفْسٌ مَا قَدَّمَتْ وَأَخَّرَتْ} [الانفطار 5]

[AI] A group of people from the desert came to the Prophet ﷺ seeking advice. The Prophet ﷺ encouraged people to give charity, but they hesitated until it was evident on the face of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Then, a man from the Ansar came with a piece of gold, and he threw it. People started following one another in giving charity until joy became apparent on the face of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said, "Whoever starts a good tradition that is followed, then he will have a reward similar to those who follow it, without their rewards being diminished. And whoever starts an evil tradition that is followed, then he will bear the burden of sin and the burden of those who follow it, without their burdens being diminished."

جَاءَ قَوْمٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مُجْتَابِي النِّمَارِ فَسَأَلُوهُ فَحَثَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ النَّاسَ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ فَأَبْطَئُوا بِهَا حَتَّى عُرِفَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ بِقِطْعَةِ تِبْرٍ فَأَلْقَاهَا فَتَتَابَعَ النَّاسُ فِي الصَّدَقَةِ حَتَّى عُرِفَ السُّرُورُ فِي وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ «مَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً فَعُمِلَ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِهَا وَأَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً فَعُمِلَ بِهَا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهَا وَوِزْرُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْءٌ»

[AI] A man asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to encourage people to give charity until it could be seen in his face. Then a man from the Ansar came with a gift and presented it to the Prophet ﷺ. The joy could be seen in the face of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said, "Whoever establishes a good practice in Islam and someone practices it after him, both receive a reward for it and the reward of everyone who acts upon it does not diminish in any way. And whoever establishes a bad practice in Islam and someone practices it after him, carries the burden of both and the burden of everyone who acts upon it does not diminish in any way."

سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَحَثَّ النَّاسَ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ حَتَّى رُؤِيَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ بِذَهَبَةٍ فَنَبَذَهَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَرُؤِيَ السُّرُورُ فِي وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «مَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً فِي الْإِسْلَامِ فَعُمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهَا وَمَثَلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً فِي الْإِسْلَامِ فَعُمِلَ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهَا وَمَثَلُ وِزْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْءٌ»

[AI] The Messenger of Allah, may peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Whoever establishes a good practice in Islam will receive the same reward as those who act upon it, without their rewards being diminished in any way. And whoever establishes an evil practice in Islam will bear the same burden as those who act upon it, without their burdens being lessened in any way."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ سَنَّ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً فَلَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا فِي أَنْ لَا يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ سَنَّ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً فَعَلَيْهِ مِثْلُ وِزْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا فِي أَنَّهُ لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْءٌ»

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "It is not recommended for a servant to perform a righteous deed after it is completed except that he will have a reward similar to that of the one who performs it, while their reward will not be decreased in any way. And a servant should not acquire an evil habit after it is done except that he will be burdened with a similar sin to that of the one who carries it out, without their own burdens being lessened."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَسُنُّ الْعَبْدُ سُنَّةً صَالِحَةً يُعْمَلُ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ بِهَا لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَلَا يَسْتَنُّ عَبْدٌ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً يُعْمَلُ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُ وِزْرِ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ بِهَا لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْءٌ»

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "A servant does not perform a righteous deed that he continues to do after his death, except that he will have the same reward as the one who performs it, without any decrease in their rewards. And a servant does not perform an evil deed that he continues to do after his death, except that he will bear the same burden as the one who performs it, without any decrease in their burdens."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا يَسُنُّ الْعَبْدُ سُنَّةً صَالِحَةً يُعْمَلُ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ بِهَا لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَلَا يَسْتَنُّ عَبْدٌ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً يُعْمَلُ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُ وِزْرِ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ بِهَا لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْءٌ»

[AI] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "Whoever establishes a good Sunnah (practice) in Islam, and it is acted upon after him, he will be rewarded and those who act upon it after him will not have their reward reduced in any way. And whoever establishes a bad Sunnah (practice) in Islam, and it is acted upon after him, he will bear the burden of sin for it and those who act upon it after him will not have their burden reduced in any way."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يَسُنُّ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً فِي الْإِسْلَامِ فَيُعْمَلُ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ إِلَّا كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً فِي الْإِسْلَامِ فَيُعْمَلُ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ إِلَّا كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُ أَوْزَارِ الَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْءٌ»

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever introduces a good practice that is followed, he will receive its reward and a reward equivalent to that of those who follow it, without that detracting from their reward in their slightest. And whoever introduces a bad practice that is followed, he will receive its sin and a burden of sin equivalent to that of those who follow it, without that detracting from their burden in the slightest.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 203)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ سَنَّ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً فَيُعْمَلُ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ كُتِبَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا وَلَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ سَنَّ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً فَعُمِلَ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ كُتِبَ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُ وِزْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا وَلَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْءٌ»

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever breaks the fast of a fasting person will have the reward of the fasting person, without the reward of the fasting person being reduced in any way. And whoever equips a fighter or takes care of his family will have the same reward as him, without his reward being reduced in any way."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ فَطَّرَ صَائِمًا كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنْ عَمِلَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أَجْرِ الصَّائِمِ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ جَهَّزَ غَازِيًا أَوْ خَلَفَهُ فِي أَهْلِهِ كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أَجْرِهِ شَيْئًا

"I heard the Messenger of Allah say: 'Whoever revives a Sunnah of mine that dies out after I am gone, he will have a reward equivalent to that of those among the people who act upon it, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest. Whoever introduces an innovation (Bid'ah) with which Allah and his Messenger are not pleased, he will have a (burden of) sin equivalent to that of those among the people who act upon it, without that detracting from their sins in the slightest.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 210)

"اعْلَمْ يا بلالُ أَنَّهُ من أحيا سُنَّةً من سُنَّتِي قد أُمِيتَتْ بعدى كان له من الأَجْرِ مثلُ من عمل بها من غيرِ أن يَنْقُصَ من أُجُورِهم شيئًا، ومن ابتدعَ بدعةَ ضَلالةٍ، لا يَرْضَاهَا اللهُ ورسولُه كان عليه مثلُ آثام من عمِل بها، لا ينقُصُ ذلك من أَوزَارِ الناس شيئًا" .

"مَنْ أَحْيَا سُنَّةً مِنْ سُنَّتِى فَعَمِل بِهَا النَّاسُ، فإن لَهُ أَجْرُ مِثْل مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيئًا، وَمَنْ ابْتَدعً بِدْعَةً فَعَمِلَ بِهَا كَانَ عَلَيهِ أَوْزَارُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا، لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيئًا".

"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".

"مَن اسْتَسنَّ خَيرًا فَاسْتُنَّ به كَانَ لَه أَجرُه كَامِلًا ومِن أُجُور منْ اسْتَنَّ به ولا يَنْتَقِصُ من أُجُورِهم شَيئًا، ومن اسْتَسنَّ سُنَّةً سيِّئَةً فَاسْتُنَّ بِه فَعلَيهِ وزره كَامِلًا ومِن أَوزَارِ الَّذِين اسْتَنُّوا به ولا ينْتَقِصُ من أَوْزَارهم شَيئًا".

“He who introduced a good practice in Islam then he will be rewarded for it and the reward of those who acted upon it without their rewards being diminished in any way. And he who introduced an evil practice in Islam then he bears its burden and the burden of those who acted upon it without their burdens being diminished in any way.”

«مَن سَنَّ في الإِسْلامِ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً فَلَهُ أَجْرُهَا وَأَجْرُ من عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ مِنْ غَيرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهم شَيئًا، ومَن سَنَّ في الإِسْلامِ سُنَّةً سَيِّئَةً فَعَلَيهِ وزْرُهَا، وَوزْرُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِه مِن غَيرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ من أَوْزَارِهمْ شَيئًا.»

"مَنْ سَنَّ في الإِسْلامِ خَيرًا فَاسْتُنَّ بهِ كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهُ وَمِثْلُ أُجُورِ مَنْ تَبعَه من غير أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِن أُجُورهم شَيئًا، ومَن سَنَّ شَرّا (*) فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ كَانَ عَلَيهِ وزْرُه وَمِثْلُ أَوْزَار مَن تَبعَه مِن غَير أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِن أَوْزَارهم شَيئًا".

"مَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةً حَسَنَةً عُمِلَ بها بَعْدَهُ كَانَ لَه أَجْرُهُ وَمِثْلُ أُجُورِهم مِنْ غَيرِ أَن يَنْتَقِصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيئًا، وَمَنْ سَنَ سُنَّةً سيِّئَةً فَعُمِلَ بِهَا بَعْدَهُ كَانَ عَلَيهِ وزْرُهَا وَمِثَلُ أَوْزَارِهمْ مِنْ غَيرِ أَنْ يَنْتَقِصَ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيئًا".

"مَنْ سَنَّ سُنَّةَ هُدًى فَاتُّبِعَ عَلَيهَا كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهَا وَأَجْرُ مَنْ عَمِلَ بهَا مِنْ غَيرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهم شَيئًا، ومن سَنَّ سُنَّةَ ضَلالةٍ فَاتُّبِعَ عَلَيهَا كَانَ عَلَيهِ مِثْلُ أَوزَارِهم مِن غَيرِ أَنْ يَنْقُصَ مِن أَوْزَارِهم شَيئًا".
