Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "We have left you upon the white, clear path." How is that?
Answer:
The hadith mentions "the white, clear path," but it does not say "we have left you upon the white, clear path." Rather, it says "we have left you upon the white, clear path," meaning one does not deviate from the Sunnah, the Sunnah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) which he brought. It is the straight, white path, the lawful way. Yes.
