| Etymology | From the Arabic root س-ن-ن (s-n-n), meaning to establish a way, to pave a path, or to sharpen/polish. Sunnah literally means 'a well-trodden path' or 'an established way of life,' reflecting the idea that নবী করীম laid down a clear path for Muslims to follow. |
Sunnah(سُنَّة) Sunnah refers to the way, practice, and traditions of Prophet Muhammad (সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়া সাল্লাম). In Islamic jurisprudence, Sunnah acts are মুস্তাহাব practices that earn reward when performed but incur no sin when omitted.
سُنَّة
The Sunnah has two main usages in Islamic discourse. In the broadest sense, it refers to the entire corpus of নবী করীম Muhammad's sayings (hadith), actions, and tacit approvals, forming the second source of Islamic law after আল-কুরআন. In the jurisprudential sense, Sunnah (also called Mandub or Mustahabb) refers to মুস্তাহাব acts that নবী করীম practiced or encouraged. In হজ্জ, Sunnah acts include: performing তাওয়াফ al-Qudum (arrival তাওয়াফ), practicing Raml (brisk walking in the first three circuits), performing Idtiba (exposing the right shoulder during তাওয়াফ), spending the 8th of Dhul Hijjah in মিনা, making dua between the Rukn Yamani and the হাজরে আসওয়াদ, drinking Zamzam water, and other devotional acts নবী করীম performed. Sunnah acts are divided into Sunnah Mu'akkadah (emphasized, regularly practiced by নবী করীম) and Sunnah Ghair Mu'akkadah (non-emphasized, occasionally practiced). While omitting Sunnah acts does not require any penalty, scholars strongly encourage following them to earn the greatest reward and to emulate নবী করীম's example.
