Keeping To The Sunnah.
Salaam everyone,
As you are aware, the Sunnah refers to the commands, prohibitions, sayings, actions and tacit approvals of the Messenger of Allah, Prophet Muhammad, may Allah bless and greet him. We, Muslims, have been directed to follow the Sunnah in all we do in Life.
Infact, the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless and grant him peace, was reported saying:--
"LET ME NOT FIND ONE OF YOU, RECLINING ON HIS COUCH, WHEN HE HEARS
SOMETHING REGARDING WHAT I HAVE COMMANDED OR FORBIDDEN SAYING:
'WE DO NOT KNOW. WHAT WE FOUND IN ALLAH's BOOK WE HAVE FOLLOWED'. [Abu Dawud].
This is a good reminder against today's casual attitude with which some Muslims, unfortunately, discard the Sunnah of our Prophet, Peace be upon him. Allah, Most High, repeatedly links obedience of Allah to obedience of His Messenger. Allah says:--
"AND WHOEVER OBEYS THE MESSENGER, THEREBY OBEYS ALLAH". (4:80) and
"WHATEVER THE MESSENGER GIVES YOU TAKE IT, AND WHATEVER HE
FORBIDS YOU, REFRAIN FROM IT". (59:7)
There are many Ayats of the Qur'an itself condemning having a 'Qur'an only' approach. To divorce the Sunnah from Islam is to render Islam ineffective. For example, the Qur'an directs us to pray and give Zakkat, but without the Sunnah, how would we know how to calculate and give/pay Zakkat and how would we know how to pray?... Note this well.
