    Response by Hassan Ilyas Sahab:

    A bit confusion here. Hasan Ilyas said,

    It has been established through narrations that respond to Azaan is Uswah. But at the same time it’s not Deen, he said.

    Ghamidi Sb mentioned in his book that once the authenticity of Hadith has been proved then it will be considered Deen and we have to accept it.

    Please elaborate.

    Hassan sahab did not say that responding to adhan is not deen. He said that it is not a part of the Sharia. He further elaborated, that the best response to adhan is to actually go and pray. Responding to the words of adhan after understanding them is very natural, and it is reportedly done by Prophet Muhammad SAW as well. We can also adopt his uswa and do the same. It is, however, not obligatory.

    Sir how we can differentiate between Deen and Sharia, often they used similarly.

    Deen can be divided into two categories: a) Al-Hikmah, which includes faiths and beliefs, as well as morals and morality; and b) Al-Kitab, which includes the Sharia or the divine laws.
