Never take anyone/anything of Islam without sound proof from the Quran and Sunnah of the Prophet. Today the Muslim world is facing much strife and disunity due to the misguidance and lack of knowledge of Muslims.
So many are into blind following, and simply following their emotions, rather than actually seeking knowledge themselves from reliable sources and then implementing it.
Will PM you some reliable websites, and some info, Insha Allah.
May Allah guide us all to the straight path..Aameen!
