Shaykh Abu Abdir Rahmaan Yahyaa Bin Alee Al-Hajooree was asked:

Question:

Is there is a difference between an innovator in the methodology and the innovator in the affairs of worship?

Answer:

“An innovator is an innovator and not everyone who falls into innovation is an innovator. He can be someone who erred. However, whoever intended and was deliberate in opposing the truth, then he is an innovator”

[at-Thawaabit ul-Manhajiyyah pg. 27]
