The importance of stopping the bid`ah when it appears

The importance of stopping the evil when it appears
The importance of stopping the bid`ah when it appears
The importance of correcting the mistake when it appears

بسم الله والحمد لله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله ، وبعد

Imaam al-Awza`ee رحمه الله said:

"When a bid`ah (an act of innovation in religion) shows up and the scholars don't warn against it, it becomes a Sunnah*."

[Sharf as-haab al-Hadeeth (1/17)]

* i.e. it becomes a norm in the society, people accept it to be the truth and follow it.
