It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) drew a line before us and said, "This is the path of Allah." Then he drew some other lines to its right and left and said, "These are different paths, upon each of which there is a devil calling towards it." After that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited this verse: «﴿وَأَنَّ هَذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيمًا فَاتَّبِعُوهُ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُمْ عَنْ سَبِيلِهِ﴾» [الأنعام: 153] "This is My straight path, so follow it, and do not follow other paths, for you will be separated from His path."
