س ١٩٧: ما هو الصراط المستقيم الذي أُمرنا باتباعه؟
Q 197: What is the straight path we are ordered to follow?
إنّ دينَ الإسلامِ هو الصراطُ المستقيمُ الذي أُمِرنا باتباعِه ونُهينا عن مفارقتِه، وهو الدينُ الذي أرسلَ اللهُ به رسلَه، وأنزلَ به كتبَه، ولا يقبلُ من عبادِه غيرَه، ولا ينجو إلا مَن اتبعَه، ومَن اتبعَ غيرَه فقد ضلَّ ضلالًا بعيدًا. قالَ اللهُ تعالى:
A ---The religion of Islam is the straight path we are ordered to follow and are forbidden to leave. It is the religion with which Allah sent His Messengers and revealed His Books. He accepts none but it from His slaves, and He saves none but those who follow it. And, whosoever follows other than it, he will certainly go astray. Allah the Almighty says:
{وَأَنَّ هَٰذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيمًا فَاتَّبِعُوهُ ۖ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُمْ عَن سَبِيلِهِ}، (الأنعام: ١٥٣)
{And verily, this is My Straight Path, so follow it, and follow not (other) paths, for they will separate you away from His Path}. (AlAn'am, 153)
