Word Meaning
Bida
Grammar: verb;Means Innovation. This is the addition/removal/ignorance of an Islamic law or teaching. Bida usually goes against what is written in authentic hadiths and the Quran or goes against what the Prophet (SAW) practiced and taught.The Prophet (SAW) said: "If anyone introduces an innovation in the religion, he will be responsible for it. (Good or bad). If anyone introduces an innovation or gives shelter to a man who introduces an innovation (in the religion) he is cursed by Allah, by His angels and by all the people." [Sunnan Abu Dawud]
The Prophet (SAW) also said: "Whoever does an action which we (Allah and His Messenger) have not commanded, it will be rejected." [Muslim - Sahih]
There are many understandings about what is or isn't bida, so your best bet is to ask your scholar.
