Imam Shatabi's View on The Guidance of The Sunnah in the Problems of Faraa

Islam is a complete of life,basad on two main sources: the Quran and Hadith. These sources provide clear guidance on how to live according to Islamic teachings. The Quran's interpretation is reliable only when combined with the Sunnah and Hadith, as separating them would make the Quran incomplete. The Quran is a book of Allah's princinples and laws, which were explained through the Prophet (peace be upon him). If the Quran had fully covered all aspects of Islam, there would have been no need for additional revelations. The Quran gives general instructions, but many details are explained by the Prophet. For example, the Quran commands prayer but doesn't specify the times or methods, so we turn to the Prophet for clarification. Similarly, while the Quran commands zakat, the Sunnah provides the detailed rules for it. Allah has prohibited many things in Islam, but these rules cannot be fully understood without the Prophet. Just as understanding the Quran is essential to understanding Islam, understanding the Sunnah is necessary to fully grasp the teachings of the Quran.

Abstract

Islam is a complete of life,basad on two main sources: the Quran and Hadith. These sources provide clear guidance on how to live according to Islamic teachings. The Quran's interpretation is reliable only when combined with the Sunnah and Hadith, as separating them would make the Quran incomplete. The Quran is a book of Allah's princinples and laws, which were explained through the Prophet (peace be upon him). If the Quran had fully covered all aspects of Islam, there would have been no need for additional revelations. The Quran gives general instructions, but many details are explained by the Prophet. For example, the Quran commands prayer but doesn't specify the times or methods, so we turn to the Prophet for clarification. Similarly, while the Quran commands zakat, the Sunnah provides the detailed rules for it. Allah has prohibited many things in Islam, but these rules cannot be fully understood without the Prophet. Just as understanding the Quran is essential to understanding Islam, understanding the Sunnah is necessary to fully grasp the teachings of the Quran.
