Assalamu Alaykum
I found this article by Bassam Zawadi:
http://www.call-to-monotheism.com/refuting_the_argument_that_the_only_duty_of_the_messenger_is_to_simply_deliver_the_qur_an
He strives to dismantle the core arguments of Quran-Centric/Quran Only Muslims. Brother Joseph Islam and others, any thoughts on the arguments presented in this article?
Wa alaikum assalam
It has never been my view that the Prophet 'delivered the message' with the implication that he would simply impart the inspired 'words' he received from God as part of the Quran and walked away.
I have a dedicated post covering the general ambit of my view regarding this matter below:
WAS THE PROPHET OF GOD AKIN TO A POSTMAN WHO SIMPLY DELIVERS A MESSAGE?

I hope this helps, God willing

Thank you for your reply. I saw another article, written by a Salafi shaykh, in regards to proof of the necessity of following the Sunnah:

I would love to read your thoughts on this article as well.
Also do you plan on updating your website with new articles as well as responses to any criticisms leveled against your articles?
