Question:
What is the sound conduct that a person must follow to be a truly believing Muslim?

Answer:
As mentioned previously: sound conduct is to be upright upon the Shari'ah of Allah, as indicated by the Book of Allah and as the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came; to seek out and know the path of the Companions and what they followed with their Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and to follow his methodology (peace and blessings be upon him):
There has certainly been for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent patternلَقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ
[Al-Ahzab: 21], and the Exalted said:
And the first forerunners [in the faith] among the Muhajireen and the Ansar and those who followed them with good conduct - Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Himوَالسَّابِقُونَ الْأَوَّلُونَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنْصَارِ وَالَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوهُمْ بِإِحْسَانٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا عَنْهُ
[At-Tawbah: 100]. You must follow this path, the path of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the path of his Companions, and those who follow their way, who are the people of the Sunnah and the community: in your words and your deeds, in everything, and beware of all religious innovations.
