[61] How is it possible to end disagreements? The disagreements with the disbelievers of Makkah were whether Allah alone is the deity or if it is necessary for there to be other deities along with Him; whether the Day of Resurrection will be established or if it is merely an illusion; whether such-and-such lawful thing was made unlawful by Allah or by others; or who made such-and-such unlawful thing lawful, and so on. And the Quran was revealed so that all such issues could be explained and clarified with evidence, so that no confusion or doubt would remain. And it was the task of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to give a clear and decisive verdict on all such disputed matters, thereby establishing Allah’s proof upon His servants. These were the disagreements of the Prophetic era, and today’s disputed issues are somewhat similar to those, while some are of a different nature. However, their solution is the same as was prescribed for the disbelievers of Makkah: if the Book and Sunnah are made the firm foundation, then even today the end of disputed issues is possible and the Ummah, divided into sects, can be united. Therefore, this Quran and Allah’s Messenger or his Sunnah can be a source of guidance and mercy for every era, provided that people accept them as the authority and believe in them as they ought to be believed in.
