... those who follow the Messenger, the Unlettered Prophet, whom they find written down with them in the Torah and the Injil, commanding them to do right and forbidding them to do wrong, making good things halal (permissible) for them and bad things haram (forbidden) for them, relieving them of their heavy loads and the chains which were around them. Those who believe in him and honour him and help him, and follow the Light that has been sent down with him, they are the ones who are successful. (7/157)
