Following the Sunnah Means We Are Following the Correct Interpretation of The Religion

Points taken from the talk ‘How to Honour the Sunnah’

The Sunnah is needed to understand the religion, it explains the Quraan and it explains the Sunnah. For example, Allaah, the Most High, says:

And perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat),” [al-Baqarah 2:43]

The question is, how do we pray? The answer is; we must return to the Sunnah for us to receive instruction.

The Prophet [Peace and Blessings of Allaah be Upon him] said, “Pray as you have seen me praying [Narrated by al-Bukhaari (602)]”

Allah, the Most High, also explains this point in His Statement:

“And We have also sent down unto you (O Muhammad) the reminder and the advice (the Qur'an), that you may explain clearly to men what is sent down to them, and that they may give thought.” [an-Nahl 16:44]

Therefore, the Sunnah explains ' what is sent down to them, and that they may give thought '.

Meaning, you will never understand, be guided  and follow the Quraan except via the knowing the Sunnah.
