The Ranged Ones (Quran)

3. The Interconnectedness of the Quran and Sunnah

The Shia tradition posits a vital interconnectedness between the Quran and the Sunnah (the practices of Prophet Muhammad). It is believed that the teachings of the Prophet, enriched by his actions and sayings, elucidate the Quran’s guidance. The Shia perspective advocates that both the Quran and Sunnah should be harmoniously interpreted as they complement each other in guiding a comprehensive moral and ethical framework.

This synergistic relationship emphasizes the importance of both belief and action, fostering a robust spiritual identity among Shia adherents. The Quran provides the foundational tenets of faith, while the Sunnah exemplifies the practical application of those principles, thereby nurturing a cohesive community grounded in righteousness.
