Is the Qur’an alone enough to practice Islam?

Some argue that Hadith and the Prophet’s teachings are not necessary — that the Qur’an is sufficient on its own.

In Episode 6 of Learning Islam from Scratch, this important and sensitive topic is explored with clarity and calm reasoning.

In this thoughtful father-daughter conversation, they discuss:

• What the Qur’an itself says about obeying the Messenger
• Why the Prophet ﷺ was sent not just to deliver the message, but to explain it
• How we would pray, fast, or perform Hajj without the Sunnah
• The logical problem of removing prophetic guidance
• Why the Qur’an and authentic Hadith complete each other

This episode approaches the topic respectfully — not to attack, but to clarify.

Because you cannot separate the Messenger from the message.
