But nevertheless men went against the commands of Allah and divided the religion (Al Islaam) and created sects, they call themselves: Sunni or Orthodox Sunni, Shi’ite, Ahmiydia, Madhab Hanafi, Wahhabi, Tajani, Bahi, Muhammadiyah, Nahdatul Ulamah, just to name a few. We have only ONE Book, which is Al-Qur’aan, but, yet all these man-made sects created schools of thought that contradicts one another and they all contradict the Holy Qur’aan. They have introduced or innovated man-made teachings in Islaam which has nothing to do with the religion of Islaam. In clear terms, these so-called man-made sects have distorted the TRUE teachings of Islaam. And it is very important to note that ALL these man-made sects came into existence AFTER the death of Prophet Muhammad (570-632) A.D., so that means that Prophet Muhammad was NOT a: Sunni or Orthodox Sunni, Shi’ite, Ahmiydia, Madhab Hanafi, Wahhabi, Tajani, Bahi, Muhammadiyah, Nahdatul Ulamah, etc.
I want the sincere readers to note that you will not find any of these so-called sectarian names in the Holy Qur’aan. It is very important for us to remember as we grow into Islaam and that is to avoid sects, again why??? Because Allah, Who is The Source of all things forbid us to form sects. Our main objective as a sincere Muslim (One Who Is Of Peace) is to seek True Islaam, Pure Islaam. So we do not belong to any of those man-made sects that has no part of Deen of Allah (Allah’s prescribed way of life), which is Islaam.
