sunnah
Islamic customary way
Sunnah refers to the body of traditional social and legal customs and practices in Islam, derived from the words and actions of the Prophet Muhammad.
It serves as a major source of Islamic law alongside the Quran, guiding Muslims in matters from daily prayers to ethical conduct: The sunnah teaches that one should eat with the right hand.
Adherence to sunnah distinguishes orthodox practice from innovation.
Also spelled sunna. (Capitalized Sunnah is the same term in formal religious contexts.)
