What this part covers
machinesummary, machine-writtenThe guest challenges hadith followers to find a hadith that explains the Quran, says the Quran uses the word hadith negatively and sunnah only for God's law, and holds that descriptive reports are history, not religion.
In more detail
The guest challenges those who follow hadith to find a single hadith that explains the Quran rather than distorting it, pointing to the twenty-nine chapters that open with initial letters, which hadith never explain; when Mufti Abu Layth asks what they mean, the guest says he has three meanings and promises to return to them. He says the word hadith in the Quran is almost always negative when it does not refer to the Quran, the best hadith, and that the two uses connected with the Prophet's words are both critical; the word sunnah in the Quran means God's law and is never used for a sunnah of Muhammad, which Mufti confirms is a term that arose later. The guest says the fabricators were ignorant of or hostile to the Quran. Mufti asks about descriptive matters known only through reports, such as the Prophet living in Makkah and the migration to Madinah; the guest answers that these are not needed for salvation and may be studied critically as history, and that the language of a report, such as shaykh meaning a married rather than an old person in the stoning report, or the praise of Yemen, Basra, Makkah or Damascus, reveals where and when it was fabricated. Mufti then turns to abrogation.

from music even they make music Haram even playing chess Haram basically they made up so many lies they've turned people millions of people life into hell and you still say well I know these are lies but we still go in this book will find our religion will try to understand Quran according to these Liars this big big liars but the Quran says you know falsely accusing one person yeah will hurt that person alone even that one you'd never listen to their testimony again you never trust the testimony of that person who by the
ones but this one is making big lives and for generations and generations cross geography all around the world turn people's life into hell made people get killed and how in the world you give them credibility you say Quran plus Bukhari who is the you've gotten in your Prophet Muhammad how you go still around like a fly try to find some protein in that garbage no you will find listen let me challenge you those people who follow Hadees you see how these explains the Quran so far I challenge them find me a Hadees explain to Quran not a single Hadees not
a single Hadees that explains the Quran just other way or not at this distorts the Quran let me tell you there are 29 chapters starts with the letters something needs explanation goodness a you mean okay 29 chapters start with this and 19 chapters have independent verse these letters are independent verse where this hadees explained the quran this is the most curious that we are and how do they explain it
let it explain this one once I asked people I cherish them I said boring me what yeah why do we feel that that is the ultimate litmus test to prove the validity of Haditha because even the Quran doesn't explain that horizon okay oh you feel it 6.0 K that's it we have three meanings or B 3 means fantastic yeah that's interesting what what our of curiosity what are these the the explanations I will come today okay we can come back don't don't forget write it down
somewhere okay here I want to challenge my brothers and sisters who follow the Hadees and Youth Kara Hadees and you have to read in the Quran interesting means miraculously the word Hadees whenever is used other than the Quran is almost always it is negative it is for the Quran is a senora DS the best ADIZ for the Quran for the other Hadees and you stir all made up fabricated Hadees in another place hey BAE hadith in BA the more we're a year aluminum which had is
besides God and his signs after God and his signs they will believe they will trust and the word Hadees is a negative in fact there are two had the world Hadees is used in connection with Prophet Muhammad's words they're interesting prophetically they are in negative way in one of them the listening of that Hadees is prohibited people are criticized for listening to those because they were private in other one it is the distribution of it is courtesy well for in order narration of
Hadees happen one even if Allah must hear ever fella must relate to another person these two things prophetically is criticizing the Quran and the word Sunnah - according to the Quran Sunnah means law and the only valid law is Sunnah to last in the to last Natoma well intentionally Susan today Kapila miss Jenny nowhere in the Quran the Signet use is for Sunita Mohammed know where it was that is true because a term that comes about much later on yeah the fabricator of Hadees and sooner they were ignorant of the Quran or they were
the enemy of the Quran they weren't exactly directly like that diametrically again is to Quran verse is very cleaver I mean you know this these things this is you see these things like rulings which come from in hadith and you can understand why people may manipulate rulings and they may manipulate some events like you said for political prowess or usage but there are so many other things as well like like just descriptions things like like the the fact that the Prophet lived in Makkah the fact that he grew up in Makkah the fact that these things all come to us through these descriptions the fact that he you know this thing of the the
migration the fact of all I I know you can get some inferences of the migration from the Quran but Medina or anything all of this yes rib for example the problem is not you need that my brother these not needed for our salvation now these you may you may like it as a historian of course there's a story you will critically look at it you will find a lot of lies and distortions a lot of exaggerations and some truth to archaeological evidence of course I also look at Hadees about the language that used when this Hadees was fabricated how the transformation of her for example a
shape who a shaker - it shows that whoever fabricated these hadees attribute to God had different by leg than the Quran because the Quran according to Quran would shake means that the old person but according to this Hadees it meant the married person not the old person for example the language change therefore you may get about the information about the culture of the people who fabricated the Hadees or the political problems for example study of many Hadees it shows where these Hadees was fabricated it is
description of the king or the government of that place Hadees they made it comes in Yemen in Basra true fair Mecca correct and sharm Damascus in all these places because those fabricated during the time by people who lived in that in those area okay I was going to say you know you mentioned something there just a little while back about NASA this whole concept of mass and this is once again an area of great interest for you that there was no such thing as NASA because we're just looking
