Re: Ifs and Buts in Sunnah
On the other hand, many Muslims think highly of the Prophet (SAW) and many try to emulate him. Yet none of them consider to be worshipping him. You're the only who said anything about worshipping.
What do you think of the statement "we place the whole universe on one side and the Prophet (saw) on the other side, Allah (swt) loves the Prophet (saw) more than the rest of the whole humanity"?
I know the term 'worship' is is what is foremost in people's thoughts, but according to the surahs posted, are we bowing to someone when we make this beatifying statements? Did God really intend for his messenger to rise above all of humanity and the universe or was he just a mesenger for humanity and the universe?
