boundaries of Shari’ah and not to feel disgusted in living with people as well as staying away from evils and not to be impressed by them either.
Being conservative within specified boundaries means that our beliefs in relation to Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ are that He is ‘قدیم’ [i.e. always existed]. Meaning that He is from ever and will stay forever. Moreover, it has been more than fourteen centuries since our Beloved Rasool صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٰ وَسَلَّم has also physically departed from this world. The Divine book of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ was also revealed in that beloved era. Moreover, he صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٰ وَسَلَّم explained and clarified it in the form of Ahadees to his Ummah in his blessed apparent life. So when all this is also old, then based on this, it becomes necessary upon a Muslim to remain conservative. Otherwise, how will he remain a Muslim? Moreover, being conservative within specified boundaries refers to remaining steadfast upon the clear Nasoos [i.e. definitive text] of Holy Quran and Ahadees, and the important rulings proven from the consensus of Aimma-e-Mujtahideen without any dispute and argument. Similarly, for one to be a true Muslim, it is essential for him to act upon the saying of his Imam that he follows among Aimma-e-Arba’ah while accepting the saying of his Imam to be absolutely true. These principles are not of today, but have been proven and laid down centuries ago. The matter of being heedless in acting upon any of these rulings or denying them can lead one from the extent of transgression to disbelief and misguidance. That’s why a Muslim living even in an advanced world is conservative in relation to his Iman (faith) and the important rulings of Islam. Moreover, this is how it (the conservativeness) should be as this holds the importance of being the soul for his religious life.
