[quote]Thank you amnew. Point taken. However I did not intend to answer why the Quran is the word of God, but simply to respond to the statement below. But i really do not think how a book can claim to be clear whereas some of its verses cannot be understood by the addressees for the facts it referred to would manifest centuries later. I suggest you read my comment again to see if you can appreciate what I am trying to convey! The comparison you made between the work of Hadith and anti-islamic literatures is irrelevant.I suggest you to please register for the course "Understanding the Sunnah" in this website.That will insha Allah, help you to understand the difference between "Sunnah"[according to this website] and Hadith, and how the "Sunnah of the Prophet" is independant of Hadith. Hadith is an invaluable record about the last messenger of God. All the sources of religion are found in Quran and the Sunnah,which has come down to us through verbal and practical perpetuation of muslim generations.Since Hadith is not a source of religion,early muslim generation did not feel the need to record it. I must admit I am baffled by your above statement. I think you have completely misunderstood my point-which was that just because a great deal of time is spent on writing anything that itself does not lend it any credibilty. Whether the books of hadith are a invaluable collection or not was not the issue as you will recall my initial quote:-I think even the sternest critic of Hadith books would agree that some of them have excellent points. But that does not mean thay are valid. It was simply to point out as you have stated that hadith cannot be relied upon as source of religion, but vast majority of muslims unfortunately do. Athough it would appear that you do not. I would also simply ask you perhaps to sit down and make a list of good v damage that has resulted to Islam as result of introduction of hadith & then perhaps you can tell us how valueable, you feel, hadith have been to Islam. Thank you but I am aware of difference between hadith and Sunnah and it has no relevance what-so-ever to the point I was trying to make.[/quote]
