description Religious innovation is a legal precedent to be added or reduced without any documentation from the Quran or tradition. God endowed people with a perfect religion leaving no way for addition or subtraction in it and said “pure religion is Only for God, and it is the only acceptable religion for Him" (Zomar / 3). However, there have been always people who consciously or unconsciously attributed some irrelevant issues to it, and such irrelevant issues led to the religious innovations. This article examines the semantics of innovation in all aspects of innovation such as the emergence of innovation and examples of innovation by using thematic interpretation and qualitative content analysis. Indeed, innovation is comprised of three things: 1. The manipulation of religious matters including the Principles and Parameters by addition and subtraction, 2. promoting it among the people, and 3. The absence of specific or general religious reasons for the innovation. It is clear from this statement that any activity in which these three elements are present can be regarded as innovation, and it is not innovation at all in the absence of one or all of these elements.The first step for dealing with innovations is to inform the truth of religion to the public. The second step is to avoid blind imitation. And the third step refers to extricate yourself from heretics. Establishment of a system to promote virtue and prevent vice will help prevent innovation from promotion and implementation in the society.
