READING THE SOURCES OF ISLAM

THE SOURCES OF ISLAM

There are two sources of religion of Islam. These sources are the Qur'an and the Sunnah. The Quran is God's words which were revealed to the prophet Muhammad and the Sunnah is the Prophets tradition. the Qur'an is a Guidance from God for all human beings. Therefor, God's words which were written in the Qur'an should be read by all human beings. God wants all human being to be happy in the world and in the life here after by giving the guidance and rules written in the Qur'an. Their happines lies in their obedience to the guidance of God.

God sent the Prophet Muhammad as his mesenger to instruct all people how to obey and to follow his guidance. What the Prophet did was to explain, to inform, and to give examples. Everything from the Prophet was concidered as the Sunnah or Prophet's tradition, and it is the second source of islamic teaching. Therefor, what the Prophet did and said and also what his companions did and he agreed to all these are the sources of Islam.

All Muslims accept and follow guidance from Allah and his mesenger according to what is written in the Qur'an and what was taught by the Prophet as his Sunnah.
