The first thing necessary for all people is to have iman and the creed of the Ahl as- sunnat scholars as communicated in their books. It is these scholars who have explained the way of our Prophet Hadrat Muhammad 'alaihis-salam', who have comprehended murad-i ilahi (the divine purpose) of the Qur'an al-karim, and who have extracted the Prophet's purpose from the hadith ash-Sharifs. It is the way shown by them that will save us on the Day of Resurrection. It is the Ahl as-sunnat scholars who have transferred the way of Allah's Prophet and his companions (radi-Allahu ta'ala 'anhum ajmain) into books and who have protected them against being changed or defiled.
