[quote]My dear brother salaam. This is my understanding on the place of Hadith. the total basic content of Islam, which the Prophet (pbuh) was ordained to teach to all those present is completely found in the Qur'an and the Sunnah alone. Hadith, because of its very nature (of transmission), cannot add to, alter or subtract from this basic content of Islam that we have in the shape of the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Whatever exists in the body of Hadith, besides a historical account of the life and times of the Prophet (pbuh), is basically related to: the explanation and clarification of the directives given in the Qur'an and the Sunnah; and the ideal example set by the Prophet (pbuh) in carrying out the directives of the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Hadith is of great value as it can, sometimes, teach us how the Prophet (pbuh) understood and explained Islam and what was his excellent example (uswah-e-hasanah) in carrying out the directives of Islam. But, even with this importance, Hadith cannot add to the total basic body of Islam, which is restricted to what has been transmitted to us in the Qur'an and the Sunnah.[/quote]
