2. There is neither virtue nor reward for making innovations in religion. All the blessings and rewards lie only in the
obedience and following the conduct of the Prophet (PBUH).

Ibn Mas`ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) said,
"Ruined are those who insist
on hardship in matters of the Faith.'' He repeated this three times.
[Muslim]
Commentary:
This Hadith shows disgust against exercises which many Sufis have introduced in religion which
deviate from the conduct of the Prophet (PBUH) and encourage self-violence. Similarly, such people who are
hypocritical and make unnecessary probe into religious matters also fall in this category and are usually far from the
teachings and practice of the Prophet (PBUH).

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) said,
"The religion (of Islam) is
easy, and whoever makes the religion a rigour, it will overpower him. So, follow a middle course (in worship); if
you can't do this, do something near to it and give glad tidings and seek help (of Allah) at morn and at dusk and
some part of night".
[Al-Bukhari].
Commentary:
Besides moderation in worship, this Hadith enjoins that such times should be fixed for worship when
one is fresh so that one feels pleasure in performing it. But this principle is for optional and voluntary prayers only.
Obligatory Salat are to be performed at the prescribed times only.

Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) came into the mosque and noticed a rope
stretched between two poles. He enquired,
"What is this rope for?
'' He was told: "This is Zainab's rope. When during
her voluntary prayer, she begins to feel tired, she grasps it for support". The Prophet (PBUH) said,
"Untie it. You
should perform prayers so long as you feel active. When you feel tired, you should go to sleep".
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Commentary:
This Hadith deals with the following three points:
1. It forbids undue strictness and taking support of anything in the course of Salat.
2. If wrong can be corrected by hand, it must be stopped immediately.
3. One should be moderate in `Ibadah and select such times for optional and voluntary prayers when one feels real
pleasure in them.
