Qur’an and Hadith are the True Sources of Guidance: Prof. Dr. Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri

Moral development in society lies in adopting patience, contentment, and service to humanity
The teachings of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) promote the removal of hatred
The progress and prosperity of the Muslim Ummah lie in living according to the teachings of the Qur’an
Address at the Fourth Spiritual and Educational Session titled “The Noble Character of the Holy Prophet (PBUH)”

The founding leader and patron-in-chief of Minhaj-ul-Quran International, Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr. Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri, has said that the Qur’an and Sunnah contain complete guidance, and the Muslim Ummah should strengthen its connection with these sources of knowledge and wisdom.

He said that any society that follows the path of materialism and ingratitude loses its stability. The progress and prosperity of the Muslim Ummah lie in living according to the teachings of the Qur’an. If we want society to begin following the Prophetic way, we must transform our homes into centers of knowledge and ensure that future generations are educated and trained on strong religious foundations.

Shaykh-ul-Islam expressed these views while addressing the fourth spiritual and educational session titled “The Noble Character of the Holy Prophet (PBUH)”

He further stated that a balanced Islamic society flourishes through respect for humanity and the practice of maintaining relationships. According to him, the concept of maintaining ties (Silat-ur-Rahm) is not limited only to blood relations; rather, it includes good conduct and kindness toward all human beings without discrimination.

Dr. Tahir-ul-Qadri explained that the human body and all its organs are created together, yet in the race of material life these parts become scattered— the heart, mind, hands, and feet begin to move in different directions. The purpose of the Prophetic teachings is to reunite them so that a person’s actions remain free from contradiction and their central focus becomes obedience to Allah and His Messenger.

He added that the blessed Prophetic vision harmonizes the scattered inner self of a human being. All the powers, tendencies, and desires within a person should ultimately be centered on seeking the pleasure of Allah. When a person’s heart turns toward Allah and the intellect, heart, and self all become devoted to that purpose, unity, balance, and harmony emerge within the individual.

Concluding his address, Dr. Tahir-ul-Qadri said that if people make love for the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and the Prophetic way of life the purpose of their lives, all their difficulties and problems will be resolved.

The fourth session of the spiritual and educational gathering was attended by Chairman of the Supreme Council of Minhaj-ul-Quran International Hassan Mohi-ud-Din Qadri, along with Khurram Nawaz Gandapur, Dr. Rafiq Najm, Jawad Hamid, Brigadier (R) Umar Hayat, Colonel (R) Khalid Javed, Rana Waheed Shahzad, Dr. Allama Mir Asif Akbar, Dr. Ghazala Hassan Qadri, Fizza Hussain Qadri, Allama Ashfaq Chishti, Sheikh Farhan Aziz, Shahzad Rasool, Iqbal Hussain Bajwa, and a large number of central, provincial, and district leaders of Minhaj-ul-Quran, scholars, spiritual leaders, and men and women from different walks of life.
