Criticism On Ghamidi Sahab's Concept Of Sunnah By Mr. Saifullah Muhammadi
No one is saying that our Shariah is exactly the same as that of Prophet Abraham (sws) or any other prophet. There have been differences in Shariah of different prophetic nations as can be seen in Quran 5:48 and Quran 2:106 ( where Allah has replied to the objections of Jews as to why He has changed certain aspects of Shariah related to Bani-Israel in Quran which also affirms to the fact that there lies commonality among different Shariah with a few changes of course ). Whatever Shariah we have today is instituted only with the authority of Prophet Muhammad (sws) and is received in the form of Quran or Sunnah. Sunnah includes those religious traditions which were a part of Abrahamic Tradition, and were instituted with the authority of Prophet Muhammad (sws) after revision , reformation or certain additions just the way it is with all the Shariah as mentioned above. No one can deny their Abrahamic roots. It is a historical fact. Since Sunnah is received in parallel to Quran as an independent source of religion and questions could arise on its authority as religion in later times, therefore Quran 16:123 provides Sunnah that religious authority by taking it under its cover. Therefore, I failed to understand the objections raised by Mr. Saifullah Muhammadi. Please point it out specifically if I have missed anything.
