Question:
His other question says: What is the implication of belief in the Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)?
Answer:
The implication of belief in the Messenger is to believe in what he reported, to obey him in what he commanded, to avoid what he forbade, and not to worship Allah except by what He has prescribed. These matters constitute belief in the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): that you affirm his messengership and acknowledge it outwardly and inwardly, that you obey him in what he commanded you, and that you avoid what he forbade you.[Al-Hashr 59:7] and what He has forbidden you, then stop. And that you do not worship Allah except by what He has prescribed for you, except by what He has prescribed for you. So do not worship [Allah] through innovations and newly invented matters that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not prescribe. He said: Mishkat al-Masabih 140Muttafaqun 'alayh (Zubair `Aliza'i) And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 1718b He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan Abi Dawud 4607Sahih (Al-Albani) Likewise, you believe the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in what he reported about the past and the future; you believe him in that, because it is the report of the Truthful One in whom truth is affirmed, upon whom be prayers and peace. So let no doubt befall you regarding the reports of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) when they are authentic from him. Yes.

وَمَا آتَاكُمُ الرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُGod’s messenger as saying, “If anyone introduces into this affair of ours anything which does not belong to it, it is rejected.”
صلى الله عليه وسلم من أحدث في أمرنا هذا ما ليس منه فهو رد،He who did any act for which there is no sanction from our behalf, that is to be rejected.
من عمل عملا ليس عليه أمرنا فهو رد،Avoid novelties, for every novelty is an innovation, and every innovation is an error
وإياكم ومحدثات الأمور، فإن كل محدثة بدعة، وكل بدعة ضلالة، وكل ضلالة في النار،The presenter:
