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

"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

[Machine] 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

[Machine] 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

"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.'" (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

"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»

[Machine] 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]

[Machine] 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»

[Machine] 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

"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".

"مَنْ سَنَّ خَيرًا فَاسْتُنَّ به كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهُ كَامِلًا، وَمَعَهُ أُجُورُ مَنْ اسْتَنَّ بهِ، وَلَا يَنْقُصُ منْ أُجُورِهم شَيئًا، وَمَنْ سَنَّ (*) شَرًّا فَاسَتُنَّ بِهِ، كان عَلَيه وزْرُهُ كَالًا، وَمِن أَوزَارِ الَّذِي اسْتَنَّ بِهِ، لا يَنْقُصُ من أَوْزَارِهِمْ 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 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".
