Deviation in Islam
:salam2:
:salam2:
A good website, called submission.org, basically states that "Muslims are misguided by their other books".
I agree with this website. The Hadith were written by men, not by Allah. So why do we take it for law?
Allah states that the Qur'an is the "best Hadith", so why do we need man-made ones?
Allah said that "We will interpret the religion, not you, O Muhammad" so doesn't that render the Hadith (which is basically Muhammad interpreting Islam) invalid?
Allah also states that "if you (Muhammad) were to violate any of My laws, then We surely would've stopped the Revelation to you" (or something along those lines, but the message is the same).
Sure, you may say "but Allah said to follow the prophet" but Muhammad
was following the Qur'an.
Also notice in Hadith how it's structure is basically "So-and-so was told by his uncle who was told by his uncle who was told by his father that the prophet said so-and-so". Who is to say that there wasn't corruption after all those generations?
Personally, I have accepted what submission.org is teaching us and have abandoned all Hadith laws and now I follow only the Qur'an; Allah's "Complete Word" and "the best Hadith" (those two quotes from the Qur'an).
I see there are some misinfomation and misguidance on how you are intepreting Islam from that website you suggested. I suggest you
to stay away from it cause it is giving you false infomation. I believe this verses of the Quran below shall clarify your doubts. I suggest you check it thoroughly before you make judgement calls and present mistaken info to all Muslims. Best of all, find real Islamic scholars to to guide you in your studies because there are many deviant sects that call themselves Islam but reject our prophet and and many other things.
To clarify the concept of Sunnah and our obligation to follow it, Allah (subhaanahu wa ta`aalaa) said:
"Those who follow the apostle, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own (scriptures),- in the law and the Gospel;- for he commands them what is just and forbids them what is evil; he allows them as lawful what is good (and pure) and prohibits them from what is bad (and impure); He releases them from their heavy burdens and from the yokes that are upon them. So it is those who believe in him, honour him, help him, and follow the light which is sent down with him,- it is they who will prosper." [Qur’aan 7:157]
Because this teaching is mentioned in general in this aayah, then it must include the rules in the Qur’aan and Sunnah.
A very strong indicator of the obligation upon us to follow the Sunnah can be found in this aayah:
"...And whatsoever the Messenger (Muhammad (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam)) gives you, take it, and whatsoever he forbids you, abstain (from it) , and fear Allah. Verily, Allah is severe in punishment." [Qur’aan 59:7] Allah has also made the obedience of Rasoolullaah (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) in conjunction with the obedience to Him:
"And obey Allah and the Messenger, that ye may obtain mercy." [Qur’aan 3:132]
We are asked by Allah (subhaanahu wa ta`aalaa) to answer any order by Rasoolullaah (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam):
"O ye who believe! give your response to Allah and His Messenger, when He calleth you to that which will give you life." [Qur’aan 8:24]
Allah made the obedience of Rasoolullaah (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) an obedience to Him, and following Rasoolullaah (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) an indication of the love of Allah subhaanahu wa ta`aalaa:
"He who obeys the Messenger, obeys Allah." [Qur’aan 4:80]
"Say: If ye do love Allah, Follow me: Allah will love you and forgive you sins." [Qur’aan 3:31]
And Allah subhaanahu wa ta`aalaa warrned us from not following the instructions of Rasoolullaah (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam):
"Then let those beware who withstand the Messenger’s order, lest some trial befall them, or a grievous penalty be inflicted on them." [Qur’aan 24:63]
Not only that, but Allah (subhaanahu wa ta`aalaa) told us that disobeying Rasoolullaah (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) is Kufr (disbelief):
"Say: Obey Allah and His Messenger.: But if they turn back, Allah loveth not those who reject Faith." [Qur’aan 3:32]
It was never allowed by Allah (subhaanahu wa ta`aalaa) that a believer disobey Rasoolullaah (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) order:
"It is not fitting for a Believer, man or woman, when a matter has been decided by Allah and His Messenger to have any option about their decision: if any one disobeys Allah and His Messenger, he is indeed on a clearly wrong Path." [Qur’aan 33:36]
To show that not following the ruling of Rasoolullaah (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) when a dispute occurs is a sign of hypocrisy, Allah (subhaanahu wa ta`aalaa) says:
"They say, We believe in Allah and in the apostle, and we obey; but even after that, some of them turn away; they are not (really) Believers. When they are summoned to Allah and His apostle, in order that He may judge between them, behold some of them decline (to come)....The answer of the Believers, when summoned to Allah and His Messenger, in order that He may judge between them, is no other than this: they say, "We hear and we obey"; it is such as these that will attain felicity." [Qur’aan 24:47-51]
