A brother made me write this:


As for things that are invented outside Religion e.g Aeroplane, Cars, things we ride in sea, then these are allowed and THEY ARE NOT REFERRED TO AS BID'AH IN ISLAM & Allah says: "and He (Allah) has made subservient for you all that is in the heavens & earth, all are from Him" Q45:13 for your benefit & betterment

These (mentioned above) is not related to worship but
they help us to carry out acts of worship, so, riding of cars to Hajj or to go visit a family member or to do
other allowed things or riding it to go do business or picnic all of these is from the benefits of heavens and
earths (mentioned in the verse above) which Allah has made permissible for us so THEY ARE NOT BID'AH (IN ISLAM) EXCEPT IN ARABIC LANGUAGE ALONE because they are new things, it occurred in a time and did not appear before it because man was unable to make them before but are now able.

SO, IT IS INCUMBENT TO KNOW THESE ISSUES
(REGARDING BID'AH) BECAUSE THE PEOPLE OF
MISGUIDANCE ARE DECEIVING PEOPLE, & THEY ARE SAYING: IS EVERYTHING BID'AH?

We say: no, not everything is bid'ah but bid'ah is what
is introduced into Islam from what was not of it & it
does not have evidence from Quran or Sunnah. As for what is other than that it is not bidiah it is nothing but what Allah has allowed, so, there is difference between the two......

Allahu A'alam.
