Narrated by the humble servant of One Islam, whose name means al-Haqq from Allah’s Apostle in vision, saying: “All that a pure believer needs is within the True and Holy Qur’an. This is the first. Honor the sacred deed (constitution) of One Islam second. Respect these authentic Hadith of Allah's Apostle and no other is the third. Finally, honor all other sacred scripture that respects Allah as one who loves all life, peace and wisdom. Never raise false sayings and false scripture above these four things.” |

The Prophet said, “Allah gives men and women the ability to think, to reason and to choose. Therefore you yourself do not need to be told what is wicked and that which is true. If a person tells you to fear Allah first before respect, if they tell you that perfect prayer is more important than right intention, if they tell you that Allah demands sheep-like behavior over a passionate then the gifts given to you by Allah should be enough to see through such evil and lies.”

The Prophet said, “Islam is based on one principle above all others: To respect yourself first and then all others. Only through self respect and respect of others can a person truly love Allah.”
|
|
| 4. |
The Prophet said, “Those who say a true Muslim must fear the Lord are wrong. Fear comes from ignorance. Hate comes from fear. Evil comes from hate. A person who fears Allah does not honor him, but the demon that told him such a lie.”
|
|
| 5. |
The Prophet said, “Faith in Islam is simple. It is the belief above all others that there is only one God and his true name is Allah, that he created us, he loves us and the greatest respect we can show is to live a good and holy life in his honor.”

|
| 6. |
The Prophet said, “Anyone who claims I did prescribe great rules and complications upon those who wish to live as Muslims is wrong. If a rule cannot be understood as honoring life in respecting family, community and the Lord, then it is a false rule.”
|
|
| 7. |
The Prophet said, “If you choose to be ignorant and follow false teachings like a donkey, then Allah will grant your wish and treat you like one.”
|
|
| 8. |
The Prophet said, “If a person claims I have made a rule that takes a hundred words to say that which should be said in only a handful, then it is almost certainly a false rule.”
