Chapter on Innovations, Personal Opinions and Analogies

8ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ رَفَعَهُ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ وَأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالا كُلُّ بِدْعَةٍ ضَلالَةٌ وَكُلُّ ضَلالَةٍ سَبِيلُهَا إِلَى النَّارِ.
8. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Muhammad ibn ’Isma‘il from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan in a marfu‘ manner (rafa’ahu) from abu Ja’far and abu ‘Abdallah عليه السلام who have said the following. “All innovations are misguidance and all misguidance leads to Hell.”
