Sunnah, the roles of the Prophet, the status of the sunnah vis-a-vis the
Quran demonsrtating that the two go hand and hand as the foundation of
Islam, ruling concerning one who rejects the authority of the Sunnah,

the Sunnah. This book is meant to clarify a number ofcommon
misconceptions and encourages the correct following of the sunnah.
The word “sunnah” is defined in detailed
as it is used by scholars of different disciplines. The authority and
importance of the Sunnah is determined via a discussion of about fifty
verses of the Qur’an. The roles of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon
him) and the indispensability of this Sunnah are clearly spelled out.
The Position of the Sunnah vis-a-vis the Qur’an is dealt with in detail,
demonstrating that the two go hand in hand as the foundation of Islam.

the sunnah was preserved is also discussed. The ruling concerning one
who denies the place of the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace be upon him) is

implementation of the Qur’an-is the only real “version and way of Islam.
The final chapter discusses the real meaning of “adhering to the
Sunnah” as well as a discussion of what a commitment that truly is.
