Hadith 450

حَدَّثَنَا قَبِيصَةُ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ شَيْخٌ مِنْ آلِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: رَأَى سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيِّبِ رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ يُكَبِّرُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ، أَيُعَذِّبُنِي اللَّهُ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ ؟، قَالَ: "لَا، وَلَكِنْ يُعَذِّبُكَ اللَّهُ بِخِلَافِ السُّنَّةِ".
A man from the family of Umar, Abu Rabah, said: Sa'id bin al-Musayyib (may Allah have mercy on him) saw a man performing two rak'ahs of prayer excessively after 'Asr. He asked him: O Abu Muhammad! (the kunyah of Sa'id bin al-Musayyib) Will Allah punish me for praying? He replied: No (not for praying), but Allah will certainly punish you for opposing the Sunnah.

Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Ahadith 443 to 450)

In these traditions and statements, there is encouragement for obedience and following of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), and an exhortation to avoid innovations (bid‘ah) and differing opinions. There is guidance to refrain from those actions which the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) did not do, and a severe warning of painful punishment, even if the action contrary to the Sunnah is related to prayer itself, as mentioned in the last narration.

And Allah knows best.
