48:22
The word sunnat stems from the Arabic root letters sin, nun, nun and means way, course, rule, habit, custom or law. By Divine sunnat (sunnatu’llah) is meant the custom and wisdom of God. As the Wise Qur’an says: "It is the custom of Allah which has taken course aforetime; and you will never find any change in the custom (sunnat) of Allah." (48:22). It is also said: "And you will never find any alteration in the custom of Allah" (35:43). That is, although the sharicats of the Prophets prior to the Holy Prophet contained different forms with respect to secondary or accidental matters, their essential or primary purpose was the same, namely the recognition of God, obedience to Him and the attainment of eternal salvation which can be obtained by acting upon the spirit of Islam.
