Peace,
Quote:"If you dispute concerning any matter, refer it to Allah and to the Messengers" 4:59
Referring to Allah and the Messenger both mean ONE THIGN- the quran. The messenger was God's spokesman. HIS words are in the quran. The questions that he was asked and the answers that were inspired to him are RECORDED in the quran
They ask you about intoxicants and gambling?. <i><b>Say</b></i>: 'in them is great sin, and befit for the people; but their sin is greater than their benefit'..." 2:219
“And they ask you about the Spirit?. <i><b>Say</b></i>:' the Spirit is one of my Lord's commands, and the knowledge you were originally given was very little' 17:85
Quote:"The answer of the believers, when summoned to Allah and to His Messenger, in order that he may judge between them is no other than this: They say: We hear and we obey."
24:51
"But no, by thy Lord, they can have on faith, until they make thee judge in all dispute between them, and find in their souls no resistance against they decisions, but accept them with the fullest conviction."
4:65
Muhammad was ORDERED to judge by the quran ONLY
We have revealed to you the Scripture with truth that <i><b>you may judge between the people by that which God Has shown you</b></i>, and do not be an advocate for the treacherous. 4:105
HE HAD to judge by GODS SCRIPTURE ONLY, NOT PERSONALLY
“We ordained therein for them (Jews): "Life for life, eye for eye, nose for nose, ear for ear, tooth for tooth, and wounds equal for equal." But if any one remits the retaliation by way of charity, it is an act of atonement for himself. And WHOEVER <i><b>DOES NOT JUDGE BY WHAT ALLAH REVEALED, THOSE ARE THE ZALIMOON/OPPRESSORS</b></i>”.5-45
“Let the people of the Injeel (Christians) JUDGE BY WHAT ALLAH HAS REVEALED therein. And <i><b>WHOEVER DOES NOT JUDGE BY WHAT ALLAH REVEALED, THOSE ARE THE FASIQOON/REBELLIOUS</b></i>” 5:47
“And We Revealed to you (Muhammad) The-Book with the truth, confirming of The-Book before it, and superseding it. So (Muhammad) JUDGE <i><b>BETWEEN THEM BY WHAT ALLAH REVEALED, </b></i>and don't follow their vanity, diverging you away from the truth which hath come to you. For each We have appointed a SHARIAH and a way. Had Allah willed He could have made you one Ummah, but it is that He might try you in what He gave you; therefore VIEW WITH ONE ANOTHER IN VIRTUOUSNESS; to Allah do you all return, SO HE WILL LET YOU KNOW THAT IN WHICH YOU DIFFERED”;5:48
The quran is the law (5-48), and Muhammad judged by the quran ONLY. Those who do NOT judge by God's revelations are called Kafirun, Fasiqun and Zalimun by The God, and....Muhammad was not amongst any of them.
