Peace Surdar Asif,

Allah SWT said in the Holy Quran Surah Al Imran verses 31.

Say, [O Muhammad], “If you should love Allah , then follow me, [so] Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.”

Thank you Lethal kamikaze. For a Muslim, to follow the Prophet pbuh is to follow Allah swt. No doubts about that.

Book ‘Holding Fast to the Quran and Sunnah’ of Sahih Bukhari Hadith No. 387

**Narrated Abu Musa: The Prophet said, “My example and the example of what I have been sent with is that of a man who came to some people and said, ‘O people! I have seen the enemy’s army with my own eyes, and I am the naked warner; so protect yourselves!’ Then a group of his people obeyed him and fled at night proceeding stealthily till they were safe, while another group of them disbelieved him and stayed at their places till morning when the army came upon them, and killed and ruined them completely So this is the example of that person who obeys me and follows what I have brought (the Quran and the Sunna), and the example of the one who disobeys me and disbelieves the truth I have brought.” **

The conflict within Islam has never been whether to follow Sunnah or not but it has primarily been about the source(s) of the Sunnah.

Therefore I am more asking for Prophet’s commands in regards to source of authority and guidance after the Prophet pbuh. For example in Sahi Muslim and Sunan Tirmidhi Prophet pbuh is said to have asked to cling on to two weighty things (known as Hadees e Saqalain/Thaqalayn) namely book of Allah (Quran) and his family (Ahlay Bayt). Is there any more such traditions in Sahi books pointing towards other sources apart from the Quran and the Ahlay Bayt?
