Sayyiduna Miqdam bin Ma’dikarib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: On the day of Khaybar, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade certain things such as the donkey, etc. Then he said: “Soon a man will be reclining on his couch, narrating my hadith, and will say: ‘Between us and you is the Book of Allah; whatever we find in it to be lawful, we will consider lawful, and whatever we find in it to be unlawful, we will consider unlawful.’ Listen! Whatever the Messenger of Allah has declared unlawful is indeed unlawful, just as whatever Allah, the Exalted, has declared unlawful.”
It is narrated from Imam Awza'i (may Allah have mercy on him), Yahya bin Abi Kathir said: The Sunnah is the explainer and decider of the Qur'an, and the Qur'an is not the explainer and decider of the Sunnah.
It is narrated from Imam Awza'i, may Allah have mercy on him, that Hassan said: Jibreel (peace be upon him) used to bring the Sunnah to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in the same way as he brought the Qur'an to him.
