Perenialism

Perennialism is FALSE – إن الدين عند الله الإسلام

The Prophet drew a line in the sand and he said:

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ خَطَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَطًّا بِيَدِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَذَا سَبِيلُ اللَّهِ مُسْتَقِيمًا قَالَ ثُمَّ خَطَّ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَشِمَالِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَذِهِ السُّبُلُ وَلَيْسَ مِنْهَا سَبِيلٌ إِلَّا عَلَيْهِ شَيْطَانٌ يَدْعُو إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ وَإِنَّ هَذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيمًا فَاتَّبِعُوهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ

“THIS IS THE STRAIGHT PATH TO GOD.”

Then he drew lines to the right and left, and said:

“THESE ARE OTHER PATHS AND EACH ONE OF THEM HAS A DEVIL INVITING PEOPLE TOWARDS THEM.”

Then the Prophet recited the verse:

“THIS IS THE STRAIGHT PATH, SO FOLLOW IT AND DO NOT FOLLOW OTHER WAYS.” (Qur’an 6:153).

[“Musnad Ahmad”, 4423 – authentic – إسناده صحيح].

So Perennialism is a false notion.

The Prophet did not say that all paths are equally true and lead to the same destination.

Also refer to Qur’an, Chapter 3, Verses 19 and 85.
