The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward like the rewards of those who follow him, without that diminishing their rewards in the least. And whoever calls to misguidance will bear a sin like the sins of those who follow him, without that diminishing their sins in the least.”

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ: «مَنْ دَعَا إِلَى هُدًى كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الأَجْرِ مِثْلُ أُجُورِ مَنْ تَبِعَهُ، لاَ يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا، وَمَنْ دَعَا إِلَى ضَلاَلَةٍ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الإِثْمِ مِثْلُ آثَامِ مَنْ تَبِعَهُ، لاَ يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ آثَامِهِمْ شَيْئًا».

If anyone summons other to follow right guidance, his reward will be equivalent to that of the people who follow him, without their rewards being diminished in any respect on that account; and if anyone summons others to follow error the sin of which sins being diminished in any respect on that account.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ دَعَا إِلَى هُدًى كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الأَجْرِ مِثْلُ أُجُورِ مَنْ تَبِعَهُ لاَ يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ دَعَا إِلَى ضَلاَلَةٍ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الإِثْمِ مِثْلُ آثَامِ مَنْ تَبِعَهُ لاَ يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ آثَامِهِمْ شَيْئًا

that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever calls to guidance, then he receives the reward similar to the reward of whoever follows him, without that diminishing anything from their rewards. And whoever calls to misguidance, then he receives of sin similar to the sins of those who followed him, without that diminishing anything from their sins."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ دَعَا إِلَى هُدًى كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الأَجْرِ مِثْلُ أُجُورِ مَنْ يَتَّبِعُهُ لاَ يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ دَعَا إِلَى ضَلاَلَةٍ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الإِثْمِ مِثْلُ آثَامِ مَنْ يَتَّبِعُهُ لاَ يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ آثَامِهِمْ شَيْئًا

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: "Every caller who invites people to misguidance and is followed, will have a burden of sin equal to that of those who follow him, without that detracting from their burden in the slightest. And every caller who invites people to true guidance and is followed, will have a reward equal to that of those who follow him, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest.'"

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَيُّمَا دَاعٍ دَعَا إِلَى ضَلاَلَةٍ فَاتُّبِعَ فَإِنَّ لَهُ مِثْلَ أَوْزَارِ مَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ وَلاَ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَأَيُّمَا دَاعٍ دَعَا إِلَى هُدًى فَاتُّبِعَ فَإِنَّ لَهُ مِثْلَ أُجُورِ مَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ وَلاَ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا

The Messenger of Allah said: "Whoever calls people to true guidance, will have a reward equal to that of those who follow him, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest. And whoever calls people to misguidance, will have a (burden of) sin equal to that of those who follow him, without that detracting from their sins in the slightest.'"

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ دَعَا إِلَى هُدًى كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الأَجْرِ مِثْلُ أُجُورِ مَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ لاَ يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ دَعَا إِلَى ضَلاَلَةٍ فَعَلَيْهِ مِنَ الإِثْمِ مِثْلُ آثَامِ مَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ لاَ يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ آثَامِهِمْ 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

"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»

If anyone summons other to follow right guidance, his reward will be equivalent to that of the people who follow him, without their rewards being diminished in any respect on that account; and if anyone summons others to follow error the sin of which sins being diminished in any respect on that account. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4609)

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ دَعَا إِلَى هُدًى كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ مِثْلُ أُجُورِ مَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ لَا يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ دَعَا إِلَى ضَلَالَةٍ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْإِثْمِ مِثْلُ آثَامِ مَنْ تَبِعَهُ لَا يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ آثَامِهِمْ شَيْئًا»

If anyone summons other to follow right guidance, his reward will be equivalent to that of the people who follow him, without their rewards being diminished in any respect on that account; and if anyone summons others to follow error the sin of which sins being diminished in any respect on that account. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4609)

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ دَعَا إِلَى هُدًى كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ مِثْلُ أُجُورِ مَنْ تَبِعَهُ لَا يُنْقِصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ دَعَا إِلَى ضَلَالَةٍ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْإِثْمِ مِثْلُ آثَامِ مَنْ تَبِعَهُ لَا يُنْقِصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ آثَامِهِمْ 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

[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

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "No one calls to guidance without having the same reward as those who follow him without diminishing their rewards at all. And no one calls to error without having the same burdens as they do without diminishing their burdens at all."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ دَاعٍ يَدْعُو إِلَى هُدًى إِلاَّ كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ مَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ لاَ يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَا مِنْ دَاعٍ يَدْعُو إِلَى ضَلاَلَةٍ إِلاَّ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُ أَوْزَارِهِمْ لاَ يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا

If anyone summons other to follow right guidance, his reward will be equivalent to that of the people who follow him, without their rewards being diminished in any respect on that account; and if anyone summons others to follow error the sin of which sins being diminished in any respect on that account. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4609)

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ دَعَا إِلَى هُدًى كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ مِثْلُ أُجُورِ مَنْ تَبِعَهُ لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْءٌ وَمَنْ دَعَا إِلَى ضَلَالَةٍ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْإِثْمِ مِثْلُ آثَامِ مَنْ تَبِعَهُ لَا يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ آثَامِهِمْ شَيْئًا»

عَن النَّبِيّ ﷺ قال من دعا إلى هدى كان له من الأجر مثل أجر من تبعه لا ينقص ذلك من أجورهم شيئا وَمَنْ دعا إلى ضلالة كان عليه من الإثم مثل آثام من اتبعه لا ينقص من آثامهم شيئا

"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" .

"مَن دَعَا إِلَى هُدًى، كَانَ لَهُ مِن الأَجْرِ مِثْلُ أُجُور مَنْ تَبعَهُ وَلا يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أُجُورهِم شَيئًا، ومن دَعَا إِلَى ضَلالة كَانَ عَلَيهِ من الإِثْم مِثْلُ آثَام مَنْ تَبعَهُ، لا يَنْقُصُ ذَلِكَ مِن آثَامِهِم 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".
