Ahl al-Bid'ah

Ahl al-Bid'ah

Ahl al-Bida ( _ar. أهل البدعة) is a pejorative semi political Islamic term.

Meaning

Ahl means "from" or "people of", and Bid'ah means "innovation of religious beliefs or worship", thus does the term conote "the innovators".

Use

The term is usually used by Islamic scholars or preacers to generalise in a pejorative way over those holding a view they do not accept. It has been used, but not exclusively, by Salafi's to denote Shi'a and others.
