[quote]no divine revelation extraneous to the Qur’a#n and not even the Prophet (sws) to whom this Qur’a#n was revealed, can specify a general directive of the Qur’a#n or alter any of its directives. Everything shall be accepted as religion or rejected that it is not on the basis of the Qur’a#n. Everything accepted in our religion shall be rigorously scrutinized under the light of this Divine Guidance. All basis of belief and faith shall be directly derived from it. Every revelation, inspiration, research and opinion shall be subservient to the Qur’a#n, and it shall be acknowledged that even the works of great jurists like Abu# H@ani#fah and Sha#fi‘i#, scholars of H@adi#th like Bukha#ri# and Muslim, theologians like Ash‘ari# and Ma#turi#di#, su#fi#s like Junayd and Shibli# must be weighed in the scales of this mi#za#n, and nothing can be accepted from them which is not in consonance with it.

brother Usmani I would be grateful for your comments on the above statement.If Qur'an is furqaan, meezan and mohemen.If even the prophet pbuh cannot change, add or modify anything from outside the Qur'an then how can we state that a hadith which has two main limitations, firstly it is a khabar i wahid and secondly has the issue of matlab bil maani, a person states what he understands is the message rather than the original message. how an we derive religion from hadith ?how can we accept hadith as a source of religion? I must stress here that I do not nagate the importance and value of hadith but I have an issue accepting hadith as a source of religion.

As brother Mujahid has identified, even those Muslims who say that they believe in QUr'an only as the source of religion, are unable to explain where they derive the details about Namaz,fasting, hajj,i.e they accept sunnah in practice but do not accept sunnah .[/quote]
