IMPORTANCE OF KNOWING THE MEANING OF: MUḤAMMAD IS THE MESSENGER OF ALLĀH
If we want to be upon the methodology of the Prophet ﷺ and enter into Paradise; if we want to be upon the Daʿwah Salafīyyah and not deviate from it; if we want to firmly hold onto the rope of Allāh; then we need to stick to the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ and understand what it means when we say, "Muḥammad is the Messenger of Allāh."
Believing in the Prophet ﷺ means:
You obey him in that which he commanded.
You affirm that which he affirmed in matters of the unseen.
You stay away from that which he forbade you from.
You do not worship Allāh, except by that which the Prophet ﷺ legislated.
By uttering Muḥammad is the Messenger of Allāh you are saying that no one is supposed to be followed in truth, except the Messenger ﷺ.
The one who disobeys Allāh and His Messenger ﷺ has clearly gone astray.
If people are opposing the command of the Prophet (ṣallallāhu ʿalayhi wa-ṣallam) and falling into that what he forbade, then we enjoin the good and forbid the evil.
The people who resemble and imitate the Prophet ﷺ the most, are Ahl al-Sunnah wa-al-Jamāʿah, the Salafīyūn.
Turning away from the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ and imitating the disbelievers indicates a deficiency in īmān.
The benefits of obeying the Prophet ﷺ is that this obedience will lead to Paradise and happiness.
