4. Protecting the Hadith
"We have, without any doubt, sent down the "Dhikr;"
and We will assuredly guard it (from corruption)."
(Surah Al Hijr, 15:9)
Hadith have also been protected by people whom
Allah has guided, such as Sh. Al-Albani and all the
hufaaz (memorizers of al-Qur’an)
7. Classification of Hadith
authentic. Imam Shafi'i states the following requirements "each
reporter should be trustworthy in his religion; he should be known
to be truthful in his narrating, to understand what he narrates, to
know how a different expression can alter the meaning, and to
report the wording of the hadith verbatim, not only its meaning".
good: is the one where its
source is known and its
reporters are unambiguous.
weak: a hadith which fails to reach the status of hasan. Usually, the
weakness is: a) one of discontinuity in the isnad, or b) one of the
reporters having a disparaged character, such as due to his telling lies,
excessive mistakes, opposition to the narration of more reliable sources,
involvement in innovation, or ambiguity surrounding his person.
fabricated or forged: is a hadith whose text goes against the
established norms of the Prophet's sayings, or its reporters
include a liar. Fabricated hadith are also recognized by
external evidence related to a discrepancy found in the dates
or times of a particular incident.
8. Hadith Qudsi
The special characteristic about this type of hadith is that it has Allah in the
actual isnad.
This type of revelation is kept different from Qur’an in that Hadith Qudsi:
The Qur’an was revealed to the Prophet (saw) verbatim; that is, both its
words and meanings are from Allah. The hadith qudsi was not a verbatim
revelation; its words are from the Prophet (saw).
The Qur’an was revealed via Angel Jibreel while the hadith qudsi may have
been inspired by other ways, such as in the form of a dream.
The words of the Qur’an are miraculous or inimitable while the words of
the hadith qudsi are not of this nature.
The Qur’an is recited in formal Prayers (salah) but the hadith qudsi cannot
be recited in Prayers.
On the authority of Abu Harayrah, from the Prophet (saw), who said: Allah
said: “Spend (on charity), O son of Adam, and I shall spend on you. “(Bukhari
and Muslim).
