ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Hadith al-Thaqalayn

Okay kiddo, let me tell you about something called Hadith al-Thaqalayn. This is a special saying of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that talks about two important things that he left behind for us to follow: the Quran and his family.

Just like how your parents teach you good things to do and say, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) taught his family to follow the teachings of the Quran and to share that knowledge with others. So when we follow the Quran and the teachings of the Prophet's family, we are following Hadith al-Thaqalayn and following the path that the Prophet wanted us to take.

It's like a map that shows us how to be good and kind to others, just like the Prophet was. And when we follow that map, we can feel closer to God and make the world a better place.
