ابن قيم رحمه الله related the saying of the Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم Whoever lives after me shall see much conflict and trouble. Then upon you is my sunnah. Ibn Qayyim said that this saying is judgmental in tone to those who dispute and it is a warning against following their way. For indeed, great disagreement and conflict result from blind following, giving way to self-interest which causes disagreement and division and ultimately changes the message. This happens despite the fact that we have one Prophet, one Qur'an and one rule. Therefore, it is incumbent upon us all to be led by the words of revelation that are common to all of us and to follow only the message of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. We must not equate anyone's sayings or deeds to that of the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم nor should we take any as a Lord other than Allah the Exalted. If we were to agree upon that, if we were led by Allah's message through the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and if we sought judgment through his sunnah and the sayings of the companions, then certainly discord would diminish, if not disappear altogether. That is why you will find that those that disagree the least among themselves are the people of the sunnah and hadith since they build their actions upon that foundation. The further a party or sect is from hadith, the higher the level of disagreement will be among that group. For whoever leaves the truth finds that he is in a state of confusion unsure of what the truth is or where to find it. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم بل كذبوا بالحق لما جاءهم فهم في أمر مريج Nay, but they have denied the truth, this Qur'an, when it has come to them, so they are in a confused state.
