Answer:
The obligation toward the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is to affirm his message (peace and blessings be upon him) and believe in it, to testify to it, and it is also obligatory to obey him (peace and blessings be upon him) in what he commanded, to leave what he forbade, and to follow him in practice, so that one does not introduce an innovation.
