Page 49 - Taking the Qur'an as a Guide

Living by the Qur'an's Values is Easy

for you. (Surat al-Baqara: 185)
But as for him who has faith and acts rightly, he will re-
ceive the best of rewards, and We will issue a command,
making things easy for him. (Surat al-Kahf: 88)
We have made the Qur'an easy to remember. (Surat al-
Qamar: 17)
He has selected you and not placed any constraint upon
you in the religion – the religion of your forefather
Ibrahim. (Surat al-Hajj: 78)
The Sunna of our Prophet (saas) is also easy to practice. Our
Prophet (saas), who adopted the Qur'an as his guide, said:
"Facilitate (religious matters to people) and do not make (things) dif-
ficult. Obey each other and do not differ (among yourselves)."
(Bukhari and Muslim).
All Muslims are responsible for presenting the easiness of
Islam (which is its very essence), reconciling people's hearts to
the Qur'an and Islam, instructing people in the Qur'an and the
Sunna of our Prophet (saas), and making them the sole guide
of one's life.
