[quote]We should look at your mentioned hadith first. It is authentically reported that Allaah's Messenger said, "Stick to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly guided Caliphs after me, cling to that with your molar teeth and beware of new matters, for every innovation is misguidance." One can clearly see that the word “innovation” must have some meaning in some special context here. That special context is adding something to the corpus of Islam The hadith that you quoted about the Taraweeh; what I see is that the word “innovation” here means initiating/starting something that is already permissible in religion. One should never put anything that is allowable in the “innovation” category. The core question about Taraweeh hadith here is: Is it allowed to offer the nafl prayer in congregation? If the answer is “yes” then there is no need to say that it is an innovation; like prophet [pbuh] said “every innovation is misguidance”. We all know that Hazrat Umar [r.a.] was a man who likes things in order. So he advised them to do it in a more better and effect manner. It would have been an innovation if we were not allowed to offer nafl prayers in congregation. Then your argument would have been just.[/quote]
