Forsaken Prophetic Traditions (سنن قل العمل بها), by Abdul-Malik Al-Qâssim, Bilingual (FR-AR)

Allah has cited obedience to the Messenger and the recommendation to follow him about forty times in the Quran, such as:

Allah (Exalted be He) said:

{وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلاَّ لِيُطَاعَ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ } [النساء: 64]

The meaning of the verse: (We sent a Messenger only to be obeyed by Allah's permission) [Surat An-Nisa': 64].

The extinction, the dispersion of the deeds of the sunnah, the ignorance of people and their negligence in putting them into practice are the prelude to the appearance of innovations and their spread, as Ibn `Abbas said (may Allah agreed): “Not a year goes by without people introducing an innovation and causing an act of sunna to die, and this, until the innovations are vivified and the acts of sunna disappeared."

In this booklet, small in volume but large in importance, I have compiled, with the help of some noble brothers, certain traditions of the Messenger which seemed to us to be misunderstood, neglected or practiced less and less, with the sole objective the dissemination of the sunna of the chosen one and his teaching to Muslims, in accordance with his order: "He who establishes a good tradition in Islam obtains his reward and the reward of all those who will apply it after him." [Reported by Muslim].

The good, indeed all the good, consists in following his guidance and taking his path. May Allah make us among his adherents who cling firmly to his sunnah, and may He forgive us and our parents. And may Allah pray on our Prophet Muhammad, on his family and on his Companions.
