Allaah            says [in the Qur’aan] (interpretation of the meaning):          “And            I (Allaah) created not the jinn and mankind except that they should            worship Me (Alone)” [al-Dhaariyaat 51:56]          i.e.,            to believe in His Oneness and to devote their worship to Him alone,            to the exclusion of all others. One of the conditions of worship being            correct is belief in His Messenger [Muhammad]             (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and following his example,            for he is the example to be followed, as Allaah says (interpretation            of the meaning):          “Indeed in the Messenger of Allaah (Muhammad)            you have a good example to follow [al-Ahzaab            33:21] </blockquote>
