Commentary
A good practice and better way is only that which is according to the Book
and Sunnah, he who performs good deeds first will also share the reward of those who performed it after seeing him. Evil way and wrong practice is that which is contrary to the teachings and laws of religion. The first performer of sin, evil and innovation will be responsible for the sins of those after him, who adopted his evil practice.
