Q 223: Who is the group meant by the Prophet (Peace be upon him) in the following Hadith: "A group of people from my Ummah will continue to obey Allah's Command, and those who desert or oppose them shall not be able to do them any harm. They will be dominating the people until Allah's Command is executed (i.e. Resurrection is established.
A--- This group is the one who will survive from among the seventy-three religious sects as given exception by Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) in his saying: "All of which will enter Hell-fire except one which is the lama' ah (main body of Muslims who rightly follow Allah and the Sunnah of the Prophet). " (Sahih Muslim)
In another narration, "All in Hell, except one, and that one is: on which I and my companions are today, i.e. following the Qur'an and the Prophet's Sunnah.” (Sahih Muslim)
We ask Allah the Almighty to make us from among them. Our Lord! Let not our hearts deviate (from the truth) after You have guided us, and grant us mercy from You. Truly, You are the Bestower! {Glorified is your Lord, the Lord of Honor and Power! (He is free) from what they attribute unto Him! And peace be on the Messengers! And all the praises and thanks are to Allah, Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists)}. ()
