Maintaining balance between the oneness of God and love for the Prophet is crucial. Obedience to God and the Prophet are equal in importance, but one follows God's commands while the other emulates the Prophet’s example. Following the Prophet is obligatory, achieved through action, not just claims. Any practice that claims to follow the Prophet without enacting it is fraudulent and creates a distinction between truth and falsehood. True adherence to the Prophet is demonstrated through practical application of his teachings.
