Sorry about the length of the previous post. I myself dislike lengthy ramblings but I felt i had to address the points raised by the previous writer.

As for your point regarding the sunna-I am afraid we will just have to disagree on this point (although I am not 100% sure as we might be not too far apart on this point)

[quote] He only ensured that two things should be preserved and communicated:
• The body of words and sounds contained in the Holy Qur’an
• The body of practices constituting the Sunnah [/quote]

I have no problems with your first point but i do have problems with the second.
If you accept your first point then the second becomes irrellevent because I have not been able to find anything in te Quran whichjustifies the existance of the so called unwritten sunna.
As I pointed out earlier if you start to introduce social etiquettes as part of religion then you will gradually end up with pre Quranic days and start to worship all sort of idols. you might consider this as ridiculous situation but then you only have to look aound to see how muslims have adopted all sort of unwritten practices i.e belief in Peers etc and they make the same justification as your group does for the sunna. 
Islam came to reinforce previous messages and to correct the corruption that humans had introduced in Gods messages. These corruptions have usuall occured as a result each generation, group or even misguided individuals introducing extras to Gods message. I am afraid the main body of this site group is guilty of the very same thing. 
i have no problem with your group propogating various method of prayers etc as long as it is consistent with the Quran. As long as it is only God that is worshipped the method (to me ) is almost irrellevent.

I am just curious how the founder of this site justify something which does not exist in the Quran.[/quote]
