Question:
What is the difference between the sunnah and the emphasized sunnah? And does the one who abandons either of them commit a sin? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
The one who abandons the sunnah does not commit a sin. The sunnah is that for which its doer is rewarded and its abandoner is not punished, whether it is emphasized or not. However, it is not permissible to abandon the emphasized sunnah; its performance is strongly confirmed. As for the non-emphasized sunnah, it is less than that, but in both types there is reward and recompense from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
