The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Soon there will come a time that a man will be reclining on his pillow, and when one of my Ahadith is narrated he will say: 'The Book of Allah is (sufficient) between us and you. Whatever it states is permissible, we will take as permissible, and whatever it states is forbidden, we will take as forbidden.' Verily, whatever the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has forbidden is like that which Allah has forbidden." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 12)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَرَّمَ أَشْيَاءَ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ الْحِمَارَ وَغَيْرَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَيُوشِكُ الرَّجلِ مُتَّكِئًا عَلَى أَرِيكَتِهِ يُحَدَّثُ بِحَدِيثِي فَيَقُولُ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكُمْ كِتَابُ اللَّهِ مَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهِ مِنْ حَلَالٍ اسْتَحْلَلْنَاهُ وَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهِ مِنْ حَرَامٍ حَرَّمْنَاهُ أَلَا وَإِنَّ مَا حَرَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فهُوَ مِثْلُ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى
[Machine] "The Sunnah is a judge over the Quran, and the Quran is not a judge over the Sunnah."
«السُّنَّةُ قَاضِيَةٌ عَلَى الْقُرْآنِ وَلَيْسَ الْقُرْآنُ بِقَاضٍ عَلَى السُّنَّةِ»
[Machine] Gabriel used to descend upon the Prophet with the Sunnah (traditions and teachings of the Prophet) just as he descends upon him with the Quran.
«كَانَ جِبْرِيلُ يَنْزِلُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِالسُّنَّةِ كَمَا يَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهِ بِالْقُرْآنِ»
[Machine] In English, the translation of the given sentence is: "There are two types of Sunnah; a Sunnah that is obligatory to follow and leaving it is considered a sin, and a Sunnah that is recommended to follow but leaving it is not a matter of concern."
السُّنَّةُ سُنَّتَانِ سُنَّةٌ الْأَخْذُ بِهَا فَرِيضَةٌ وَتَرْكُهَا كُفْرٌ وَسُنَّةٌ الْأَخْذُ بِهَا فَضِيلَةٌ وَتَرْكُهَا إِلَى غَيْرِ حَرَجٍ
[Machine] About the Prophet ﷺ, a man said: "In the Book of Allah, what contradicts this?". He replied, "I do not see that I am narrating to you from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while presenting you with a verse from the Book of Allah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had more knowledge of the Book of Allah, the Most High, than you."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ مَا يُخَالِفُ هَذَا قَالَ «لَا أُرَانِي أُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَتُعَرِّضُ فِيهِ بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَعْلَمَ بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى مِنْكَ»
