♥ Qur'an & Sunnah :
Qur'an & Sunnah :
The Qur'an is to be explained by looking first to the Qur'an itself and to the Sunnah , then to the statements of the companions of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ .
Hold firmly to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah . (refer hadith)(the last khutbah of RasulAllah)
Prophet's Sunnah is required for understanding the Qur'an .
The more knowledge a person has of the Sunnah , the more he is to have a better understanding of the Qur'an and the more capable he is of deducing rules from it as compared to a person ignorant of the Sunnah .
Sunnah is authentically attributed to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ statements , actions , other matters which serve to clarify the Qur'an , a detailed expositions of laws , teach etiquette and guide to other benefits of this life and the Hereafter .
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ gave them his ruling in a flexible matter .
There are many Qur'anic verses which cannot be properly understood without reference to the Sunnah .
Whoever combines between the Qur'an and the Sunnah has indeed attained both sources of explanation .
Deep understanding and an ability to interpret seemingly conflicting traditions are required to gain in-depth knowledge of Hadith and Islamic Jurisprudence and Usūl . (Ibn Qutaybah)
A person may submit outwardly but be inwardly dissatisfied . That is not good enough for true belief , for Allah said ,
" ..... and submit in (full willing) submission. "
Only a person who submits willingly , inwardly as well as outwardly , is a full believer. And Allah said :
وَمَا كَانَ لِمُؤۡمِنࣲ وَلَا مُؤۡمِنَةٍ إِذَا قَضَى ٱللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُۥۤ أَمۡرًا أَن یَكُونَ لَهُمُ ٱلۡخِیَرَةُ مِنۡ أَمۡرِهِمۡۗ وَمَن یَعۡصِ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ فَقَدۡ ضَلَّ ضَلَـٰلࣰا مُّبِینࣰا
[سورة الأحزاب 36]
It is not open for a believing man or a believing woman, once Allah and His messenger have decided a thing, that they should have a choice about their matter; and whoever disobeys Allah and His messenger, he indeed gets off the track, falling into an open error.
