Real and true Islam is based on the Book (Qur'ân) and the Prophet's Sunnah.
These two are the true sources of reference and precedent in each and-every
controversial issue. Anyone who tries to find the solution of the disputed issue
in some other source except Qur'ân the Sunnah, according to Qur'ân, is not a
true believer:
"But no, by your Lord, they can have no Faith until they make you ( صلى
)هللا عليه و سلمjudge in all disputes between them, and find in themselves
no resistance against your decision, and accept (them) with full
submission." (4:65)
None of the Imams urged to anyone to follow their Madhahib, on the other
hand all of the Imams advised:
In other words follow the Qur’ân and Sunnah. Many of the sayings of later
religious leaders, which were inaccurate, were attributed towards Imams and
their sects. If they had happened to see or hear those statements which had
been referred and attached to their names, they would have not only disowned
the statements but also disapproved of them strongly.
All the religious scholars of olden times who were considered to be the
luminaries of Islamic knowledge, always brought evidence from the Qur'ân and
Sunnah, and they always urged people to follow the Qur’ân and Sunnah, and
to take counsel from these two sources. It is a proved fact that Imam Abu
Hanifa, Imam Mâlik, Imam Shafe‘i, Imam Ahmad, Sufyan Thauri, Sufyan bin
'Uainah, Hasan Basari, Qadi Abu Yousuf, Muhammad bin Hasan Shaibani,
Imam Auzai, Abdullah bin Mubarak, Imam Bukhâri, Imam Muslim. and other
Real Foundations of Islam
All of the four prevalent Imams have said that it is neither permissible nor
justified to give a judicial verdict based on their word or deed unless the
reason behind that particular word or deed is understood clearly and
completely. They have also elucidated:
"Judge our words on the criterion of Qur'ân and Sunnah, and if you
find our words corresponding to the Qur’ân and Sunnah then, accept
them, otherwise turn them down."
