The Fabricated Hadith: Revisited
Keywords:
Fabricated, Hadith, Society, Text, TransmissionAbstract
The issue that arises is the words of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as a religious leader that were falsified by a few irresponsible parties that plagued the Muslim community after his death. It was a significant evil for the community since their religious rituals would be disallowed, and their religious grasp even defaced. It became even more convoluted without attempting to clarify the status of the hadiths, as some individuals in a vulnerable position accepted all of the alleged Prophetic sayings (PBUH). Using the qualitative method, this research thus revisits the dangers of hadith falsification. This article found that hadith experts have always endeavoured to clarify the stance of the hadiths that are widely disseminated among Muslims as proof of God's concern for the integrity of Islam until the end of time. Specifically, the fabrication of hadith poses grave problems in those religious beliefs revealed in hadith that would ultimately be accepted and thought to be true.
