Question:
He says: What is the ruling on one who believes that it is permissible for some people to deviate from the Shari'ah of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)? And what is the connection of that to the saying of Allah the Exalted:
And whoever desires other than Islam as religion - never will it be accepted from him, and he, in the Hereafter, will be among the losers.وَمَن يَبْتَغِ غَيْرَ الْإِسْلَامِ دِينًا فَلَن يُقْبَلَ مِنْهُ وَهُوَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ
[Ali 'Imran 3:85]


Answer:
It is not permissible for anyone to deviate from obedience to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), because Allah has made it obligatory upon all of the two groups, the jinn and mankind, to obey this Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Allah the Exalted said, when He described the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "So those who believe in him and honor him and support him and follow the light that was revealed with him—
it is those who will be the successful.أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُونَ
[Al-A'raf 7:157]
" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
No Jew or Christian hears of me and then does not believe in what I have brought except that he will enter the Fireلا يسمع بي يهودي ولا نصراني ثم لا يؤمن بالذي جئت به إلا دخل النار
Therefore, it is not permissible for anyone to deviate from the Shari'ah of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), because Allah sent him to all of mankind.
It is not permissible for anyone to deviate from his obedience and contradict his Shari'ah (peace and blessings be upon him)?
