Muhammad Bin Yahya...

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Washa, from Musna Al Hannat, from Abu Baseer who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah -asws , ‘Things (certain matters) are referred to us, neither do we recognise these in the Book of Allah -azwj not Sunnah . So can we apply our opinion in these?’ So he -asws said: ‘No, but if you are correct, you will not be Rewarded (for being correct), and if you err, you would have lied against Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic’.

Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Al Fazl Bin Shazan, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Abdul Rahman Bin Al Hajjaj, from Aban Bin Taghlub, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah -asws having said: ‘The Sunnah cannot be analogized. Can you not see that the woman fulfils her Fasts but she does not fulfil her Salat ? O Aban! The Sunnah, when analogised, obliterates (demolishes) the Religion’.

Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa ibn ‘Ubayd from Yunus from Hariz from Zurara who has said: ‘Once I asked Imam Abu ‘Abdullah -asws , recipient of divine supreme covenant, about lawful and unlawful matters and he said, ‘ Whatever the Holy Prophet -saww , recipient of divine supreme covenant, has made lawful will remain lawful forever until the Day of Judgement and whatever he -saww has made unlawful will remain unlawful forever until the Day of Judgement .

There will be no one other than him -saww and there will come no one other than him -saww .’ He said that Imam Ali -asws has said, ‘No one has established any innovation (Bid’ah – heresy) without abandoning (killing) an established noble Sunnah (tradition of Rasool Allah -saww ) .
