7️⃣5️⃣ ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud said:

7️⃣6️⃣ Muhammad Ibn An-Nadr Al-Haarithee said:
“Whoever listens to a person of innovation – and knows that he is a person of innovation – then protection is taken away from him, and he is left to himself.”
[Sharh Usool I’tiqaad, 1/135-136]
7️⃣7️⃣ Imaam ash-Shaatibee (rahima-hullaah) mentions:
“Linguistically bid’ah (innovation) means ‘a newly invented matter’. The Sharee’ah definition of bid’ah as: ‘A newly invented way [beliefs or action] in the religion, in imitation of the Sharee’ah (prescribed Law), by which nearness to Allaah is sought, [but] not being supported by any authentic proof – neither in its foundations, nor in the manner in which it is performed’.”
[Al-I’tisaam of ash-Shaatibee, 1/37]
7️⃣8️⃣ Imaam Ash-Shaafi’ee said:
“We affirm these attributes that the Qur’aan came with, and those that are mentioned in the sunnah; and we negate the idea of something resembling Him (tashbeeh) (1), since He negated this from Himself, saying: “There is nothing like unto Him.” [42:11]”
[Siyar A’laamin Nubalaa’ 20/341]
7️⃣9️⃣ Imaam Ahmad said:
“We believe that Allaah is above His Throne however He wishes and in whatever way He wishes, without any specific way or a description that a person can understand or describe. Knowledge of the Attributes of Allaah has come from Him, and they are established for Him (as His true Attributes). He is as He described Himself: “No vision can grasp Him.” [6:103]”
[Dar’ut Ta’aarudul ‘Aql Wan Naql, by Ibn Taymiyyah, 2/30]
8️⃣0️⃣ One of the Salaf said:
“Never leave a good deed because of its difficulty, for the difficulty will eventually go but the deed will remain forever. Never do a bad deed because of its pleasure/enjoyment, for the pleasure/enjoyment will eventually go but the deed will remain forever.” []
