Qur'anic Way of Life: What kind of life is that?
-
and yeah, i agree with all the teachings of Quran u mentioned.
it kind of sums up what Allah expects from us, human beings.

hi samir,
what do u mean by sunnah?
i am of the understanding that in Quran Allah commands us to follow the Holy book alone, which will remain uncorrupted because of His grace.You are right that He orders us to follow the Holy Qur'an alone (i.e., not following the previous scriptures). And yes, it will remain uncorrupted. The Sunnah includes the sayings, commentaries, actions, agreements, and strategies of Prophet Muhammad (saw), and the Sahaba.

Just to let you know, we have a members of different faiths/beliefs, so don't be surprised when some claim you have to follow traditional hadith, or others who believe that jesus is god.Hope that helps,
Peace.

Salaam Samir,
The Sunnah includes the sayings, commentaries, actions, agreements, and strategies of Prophet Muhammad (saw), and the Sahaba.
The quran contains the teachings of Allah which explains the straight path, shows us exemplary actions , how we should keep to our contracts and what we should do be there breaches therein. It devises the sought after struggle.

hi samir,
so u do agree it is Quran alone that we need to follow, in our lives?
what is the sunnah for, then?
the prophet Mohammed(pbuh) was a messenger of God and the message was Quran.
so, then, why should the prophet's life and sayings other than the Quran be followed, by the believers of Allah? is there a mention in Quran by God, asking us to copy the prophet's way of life? -
hi zenje,
thank u for the warm welcome.
i have been reading over the site and some of the forums too.the fact that people(of different faiths) are ready to open up and discuss their religion and views is whats nice about this site.
the majority of muslims follow their elders blindly coz they fear God(coz they are taught He might throw them in Hell). Quran doesnt tell us to practice blind beliefs and practices. Quran tells us to use our common sense and knowledge. -

do u mean that the Previous scriptures are not to be respected and considered as messages from Allah. Doesnt He authorise/ confirm that the previous scriptures were from Him, in Quran?

That shows your pathetic knowledge in the Quran. What kind of a sunni are you Samir? disgrace..
Anyways, the Quran clearly mentions to refer to the previous scripture when in doubt about something. God asks us to follow the truth. God also says there is truth in the previous scriptures.
