There is not a grain in the darkness of the earth nor anything fresh or dry, but is written in a Clear Record.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rasulullah\u2019s (\u0635\u0644\u0651\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0651\u0645) ability in his life was that of a human nature, whatever special qualities he had in his life were given to him by way of a miracle. Allah states in the Qur\u2019an (Surah Ale-Imran, 3:144), \u201cMuhammad is no more than a Messenger, and indeed (many) Messengers have passed away before him. If he dies or is killed, will you then turn back on your heels (as disbelievers)? And he who turns back on his heels, not the least harm will he do to Allah, and Allah will give reward to those who are grateful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Allah states in the Qur\u2019an (Surah Ash-Shurah, 42:11), \u201c\u2026There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the All-Hearer, the All-Seer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The last verse mentioned above, clarifies that none of Allah\u2019s creation is like Him. Therefore, qualities such as \u201call knowing,\u201d \u201comnipotent\u201d, \u201cAll seeing\u201d and \u201cAll hearing\u201d are not the features of men. To ascribe the attributes of Allah to man is harmful to one&#8217;s imaan.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2022 Misconception: Follow only the Qur\u2019an. The Qur\u2019an is the words of Allah we can\u2019t rely on the Hadith as we rely on the Qur\u2019an, because the Hadith are the words of man.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2022 Perception: People who adhere to this claim, have actually discarded two thirds of their Deen. This is so, because the Hadith is an explanation of the Qur\u2019an. Many things are not explicit in the Qur\u2019an in which the Hadith explicitly explains. For example, the method of prayer, fasting and zakat. The Qur\u2019an was also transmitted to us by the same noble companions who also transmitted the Hadith. So how can one say they accept the Qur\u2019an and reject the Hadith? Allah states in the Qur\u2019an concerning the legality of the words of Rasulullah (\u0635\u0644\u0651\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0651\u0645), (Surah An-Najm, 53:3-4), \u201cNor does he speak of (his own) desire.\u201d \u201cIt is only an Inspiration that is inspired.\u201d Allah states in the Qur\u2019an (Surah Al-Hashr, 59:7) \u201c&#8230;And whatsoever the Messenger (Muhammad) gives you, take it, and whatsoever he forbids you, abstain (from it) , and fear Allah. Verily, Allah is Severe in punishment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We understand from the aforementioned Ayahs, to reject Rasulullah (\u0635\u0644\u0651\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0651\u0645) teachings is to actually reject the Qur\u2019an. So this claim of taking only from the Qur\u2019an is nothing but misguidance in disguise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2022 Misconception: We all worship one god so let\u2019s unite. All religions can come under one\u00a0roof and worship Allah.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2022 Perception: This notion of unification of religion is a deception from the Shaitan. The only Deen accepted by Allah is Islam. Allah states in the Qur\u2019an (Surah Ale-Imran, 3:19), \u201cTruly, the religion with Allah is Islam. Those who were given the Scripture (Jews and Christians) did not differ except, out of mutual jealousy, after knowledge had come to them. And whoever disbelieves in the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah, then surely, Allah is Swift in calling to account.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Allah states in the Qur\u2019an (Surah Ale-Imran, 3:85), \u201cAnd whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers.\u201d The Qur\u2019an states (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:120), \u201cNever will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him) till you follow their religion. Say: &#8220;Verily, the Guidance of Allah (i.e. Islamic Monotheism) that is the (only) Guidance. And if you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him) were to follow their (Jews and Christians) desires after what you have received of Knowledge (i.e. the Qur&#8217;an), then you would have against Allah neither any Wali (protector or guardian) nor any helper.\u201d The Qur\u2019an states (Surah Al-Ma&#8217;idah 5:3),\u201c\u2026 This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion \u2026.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The purport of the aforementioned Verses, are sufficient to know that Islam cannot be united with any other religion. Mention was made by Allah of monotheistic religions, so to call for unification of religions with polytheistic religions is preposterous. Allah states in the Qur\u2019an. (Surah Ale-Imran 118-119) \u201cO you who believe! Take not as (your) Bitanah (advisors, consultants, protectors, helpers, friends, etc.) those outside your religion (pagans, Jews, Christians, and hypocrites) since they will not fail to do their best to corrupt you. They desire to harm you severely. Hatred has already appeared from their mouths, but what their breasts conceal is far worse. Indeed We have made plain to you the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses) if you understand.\u201d \u201cLo! You are the ones who love them but they love you not, and you believe in all the Scriptures [i.e. you believe in the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel), while they disbelieve in your Book, the Qur&#8217;an]. And when they meet you, they say, &#8220;We believe&#8221;. But when they are alone, they bite the tips of their fingers at you in rage. Say: &#8220;Perish in your rage. Certainly, Allah knows what is in the breasts (all the secrets).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are many other deviant ideologies amongst the Muslims, which have taken root in various parts of the world, some are more prevalent in certain areas than others. It should be borne in mind, that to save one\u2019s self and one\u2019s family from such deviance, one need to make dua to Allah and ask for his guidance. Allah states in the Qur\u2019an (Surah Ale-Imran, 3:8), (They say): &#8220;Our Lord! Let not our hearts deviate (from the truth) after You have guided us, and grant us mercy from You. Truly, You are the Bestower.&#8221;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One should keep the company of the righteous scholars and elders and adhere to their teachings, being mindful not to take their religious teachings from any and everyone. Deen was spread by the heart to heart connection of the scholars. The new trend of taking our religion from the internet and other mediums, have led to misguidance amongst the masses of the Muslims. The information being circulated is not verified nor is the religion of those who put this information known to the masses. The upright scholars should be consulted as to what books to read and what lectures to listen to. These few points will aid to curb the surge of misguidance which has become prevalent today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Footnote:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">1.
