An authentic hadith is a hadith which is connected by a trustworthy chain of transmission.
If a hadith does not satisfy the requirements of sahih and hassan hadiths, then it is da’if.
III)ANSWER THE FOLLOWING
1)Which is the second source of Sharia after the Holy Qur’an? And why?
Ans) Hadith is the second source of Sharia after the Holy Quran, as it interprets and confirms what is mentioned in the Holy Quran, not only this; it states the rules not mentioned in the Holy Quran.
2) In how many categories does the scholars divided hadith?
Ans) Scholars have divided hadith in two major categories:
First: Hadith in terms of the numbers of narrators.
Second: Hadith in terms of the acceptance and rejection (qabool and rad). This category includes Sahih, Hassan, Da’if and Maudu’.
3.) What are the aspects to identify the authentic hadith?
Ans) An authentic hadith is a hadith whose chain of transmission is connected by the report of a trustworthy, completely competent person from one similar to him from the beginning to the end ofthe chain of transmission without flaw or irregularity.
4)What does ‘’connected chain of transmission’’ means?
Ans) Connected chain of transmission means that each narrator has taken the hadith from his sheikh. The ‘Competence of the Narrator’ relates to the narrator’s truthfulness and his good morals.
5)What is the difference between Hassan and Da’if hadith?
Ans) A Hassan hadith is subject to the same conditions as a ‘Sahih’ Hadith; but here the control of narration is lesser than ‘Sahih’ hadith. If a hadith doesn’t satisfy the requirements of ‘Sahih’ and ‘Hassan’ hadith, then it is ‘Da’if (weak).
6)What is fabricated hadith?
Ans) Originally, it is not a Hadith; but it was agreed as a term to shed light on it and warn people of it. This is the kind of hadith attributed to Allah’s Messenger PBUH by liars and fabricators and it was not said by our Prophet in the first place.
7)who are fabricators of hadiths?
Ans) The fabricators of hadith are following.
The hypocrites who work on ruining religion.
Prejudiced persons who told lies about Allah’s Messenger to advocate their prejudice.
Story-tellers who earn their means of living by telling different stories and exotic narratives to please commoners.
Pseudo-religionists who fabricated hadiths on various deeds to encourage people to engage in doing good.
8)What aspects are there to identify a fabricated hadith?
Ans) The aspects to find a fabricated hadith are as follows:
Being in conflict with the holy quran and Islamic faith.
Inaccuracies in meaning and structure.
Being in conflict with inconvertible intellectual truisms.
Mocking scholars or prophets.
Containing excessive threat on minor wrong demeanours and exaggerated rewards for actions of obedience.
9) What warning was given by Prophet PBUH to tell lies about him?
Ans) The Messenger of Allah said: ‘’whoever tells lies about me deliberately, let him take his place in Hell.’’
