In truly loving and respecting the Prophet  صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم , one is required to act upon his sunnah. Dawat-e-Islami not only teaches this, but heavily emphasises on implementing the sunnah into every facet of life. The overriding message is, “We shall do everything according to the sunnah.” Eating, drinking, wearing clothes, sleeping, walking; whatever it may be, emphasis is placed upon abiding by the sunnah.

In this regard, Amir Ahl al-Sunnah دَامَـتْ بَـرَكَـاتُـهُـمُ الْـعَـالِـيَـهْ has gifted us the 72 Pious Deeds booklet, and in Pious Deed number 29, we are asked, “Today, have you eaten according to Sunnah and recited the du’as to be recited before and after eating?” As you can see, by acting upon this booklet, you will find yourself developing the practice and mindset of implementing the sunnah.

We should all strive to affiliate ourselves with this Islamic environment of Dawat-e-Islami and actively take part in its 12 religious activities.

Out of respect for the Prophet  صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم , the honourable Companions رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُم would also greatly respect his hadith. Sayyidunā ‘Ali کَـرَّمَ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَـالٰی وَجۡـھَـهُ الۡـکَـرِیۡم has narrated: “When the Messenger of Allah
