Abstract
Qur’an and prophetic traditions (Hadith) are the fundamental sources of Islam. Muslims believe that Qur’an is the word of God (Allah). Hadith (Prophet’s Sayings, actions and silent approval and disapproval for something) likewise is based on divine revelation. Qur’an affirms also this view: (God says) Your Companion (Muhammad) has neither gone astray nor has erred, nor does He speak of (his own) desire. It is only a Revelation revealed. Al-Qur’an (53:2-4). Allah Almighty Himself took the responsibility to guard His word (the Qur’an): (He says :) verily, We, it is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Qur’an) and surely, We will get it (from corruption). (Al-Qur’an:15:9) on the contrary the responsibility to guard the prophetic traditions (Hadith) was put on the shoulders on the Muslim Ummah. The scholars of Islam (Ulamas) try their utmost to collect and save the Prophetic traditions and guard it from any alteration. To achieve this purpose, they introduced different hadith sciences to distinguish between the true and the fabricated hadith. The authentic Sunnah is contained within the vast body of Hadith literature. Different scholars have edited and compiled the books which contain a large numbers of authentic Ahadith (Ahadith Sahiha), one of them is Imam Dara Qutni who had worked on different angles of Hadith and Uloom ul Hadith. In this article, we will briefly introduce Imam Dara Qutni and his work towards approach to the prophetic tradition in his book Sunan Dara Qutni.
