    We are Muslims

    And that is enough


    Narrated al-harith al-ash'ari () who said:
    THAT THE MESSENGER OF ALLAAH (‫ )ﷺ‬SAID: "Indeed Allaah commanded Yahya bin Zakariyya with five
    commandments to abide by, and to command the Children of Isra'il to abide by them. But he was slow in doing
    so. So 'Eisa  said: 'Indeed Allaah commanded you with five commandments to abide by and to command the
    Children of Isra'il to abide by. Either you command them, or I shall command them.' So Yahya said: 'I fear that
    if you precede me in this, then the earth may swallow me, or I shall be punished.' So he gathered the people in
    Jerusalem, and they filled [the Masjid] and sat upon its balconies. So he said: 'Indeed Allaah has commanded
    me with five commandments to abide by and to command you to abide by;
    THE FIRST OF THEM IS THAT YOU WORSHIP ALLAAH and not associate anything with him. The parable of the one
    who associates others with Allaah is that of a man who buys a servant with his own gold or silver, then he says to
    him: "This is my home and this is my business so take care of it and give me the profits." So he takes care of it and
    gives the profits to someone other than his master. Which of you would live to have a servant like that?
    AND ALLAAH COMMANDS YOU TO PERFORM SALAAT, and when you perform Salaat then do not turn away, for
    Allaah is facing the face of His worshippers as long as he does not turn away.
    AND HE COMMANDS YOU WITH FASTING. For indeed the parable of fasting, is that of a man in a group with a
    sachet containing musk. All of them enjoy its fragrance. Indeed the breath of the fasting person is more pleasant
    to Allaah than the scent of musk.
    AND HE COMMANDS YOU TO GIVE CHARITY. The parable of that is a man captured by his enemies, tying his
    hands to his neck, and they come to him to beat his neck. Then he said: "I can ransom myself from you with a
    little or a lot" so he ransoms himself from them.
    AND HE COMMANDS YOU TO REMEMBER ALLAAH. For indeed the parable of that, is a man whose enemy quickly
    tracks him until he reaches an impermeable fortress in which he protects himself from them. This is how the
    worshipper is; he does not protect himself from Ash-Shaitan except by the remembrance of Allaah.'"

    The Prophet (‫ )ﷺ‬said: "And I command you with five that Allaah commanded me: LISTENING and OBEYING,
    JIHAD, HIJRAH, and the JAMA'AH. For indeed whoever parts from the Jama'ah1 the measure of a hand-span,
    then he has cast off the yoke of Islam from his neck, unless he returns. And whoever calls with the call of
    Jahiliyyah then he is from the coals of Hell." A man said: "O Messenger of Allaah! Even if he performs Salaat and
    fasts?" So he (‫ )ﷺ‬said: "Even if he performs Salaat and fasts. So call with the call that Allaah named you with:
    Muslims, Believers, Worshippers of Allaah." 2
     This hadeeth “comprehends all types of knowledge”3 and the most important matter that we wish to
    draw attention to here is its end: So call with the call of Allaah which Allaah gave: The Muslims, the
    Believers, Worshippers of Allaah.
     Shaikhul-Islaam Ibn Taimiyah4 reports that one of the Salaf (Pious Predecessors) said, “I do not mind
    which out of the two blessings was greater, that Allaah guided me to Islaam, or that he kept me away
    from these innovated sects. By Allaah, the Most High, in the Qur’aan He called us the Muslims, the
    Believers and the Worshippers of Allaah, so we will not leave the names which Allaah has named us
    with in favour of names innovated by the people, which they call themselves by and also their
    forefathers for which Allaah has sent down no proof.”
    1. At-Teebee said, “What is meant by the Jamaa’ah is the Companions and the Taabi’een and the generation after the Taabi’een
    – the Pious Predecessors: That is, I order you to cling to their guidance and their way and to associate with them.” (Tuhfatul-
    Ahwadhee Sharh Sunanut-Tirmidhee (8/162)).
