Description :


A brief, general reply to those who refute or undermine the neccessity and integrity of Ahadith! This book is the English translation of ''Ek Islam'' (One Islam) by Hakim al-Ummah; Mufti Ahmad Yaar Khan Na'imi al-Ashrafi, 'alayhi ar-Rahman w'al-Ridwan.

Introduction : Undoubtedly, all utterances of the Holy Prophet, Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam, which are part of the Deen are from Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala. The content and words he spoke by means of revelation (wahi) is known as the Qur'an, while the content which was from Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, but whose wording was from the Holy Prophet, Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam, is known as hadith. This is why the Qur'an is recited in Salaah while the hadith isn't. 

There are three categories of Hadith :

---[1]. Hadith-e-Qawli - The utterances of the Beloved Prophet, may Allah bless him & grant him peace.

---[2]. Hadith-e-Fe'li - His daily actions.

---[3]. Hadith-e-Sukooti - Someone doing something in his presence and he didn't prohibit it.

 

... In short, the Qur'an and Hadith are two necessary pivots of Islam, without which its shelter couldn't be supported. Today, some people shut their eyes completely and reject the Hadith while still acting upon thousands of them. I will present the view of the Muslims in two chapters, the first of which will discuss the proofs of the necessity of Hadith, while the second will answer a few objections on the issue.
