Fear Allah , Listen & Obey , Hold fast on sunnah & rightly guided caliphs , Avoid bid’ah .

The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) gave a powerful speech one day that moved many of his listeners. A man asked for advice from the Prophet before he left. The Prophet's response was that he should fear Allah and obey even if a black slave is appointed as leader. He also warned them about discord they would see in their lifetime and advised them to stick to the Sunnah of himself and the Rightly-Guided Caliphs who will come after him. He also warned against Bid'ah or innovations in religion as it is misguidance. This hadith teaches us that we should always strive to follow what has been taught by our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), not just because it is tradition but because it is guidance from Allah Himself. We must also be careful not to introduce any new practices into our faith as this can lead us astray from true guidance.
