If a hadith is sahih, does it mean that it's true?
« on: June 18, 2017, 12:09:47 PM »
Hello, I was wondering if a hadith is considered sahih, does it make a true hadith 100% why can't the hadith be wrong but scholars have considered sahih? And if a hadith is considered weak, does that make it false 100%? I'm looking forward to your answers.

well, the basing of if a hadith is correct is through looking at the text, does it go against the quran and seeing the ones who have transmitted us the hadith. If the ones who have transmitted us the hadith are people who are : 1.known, 2.trustworthy 3. have good memory 4. are known not to lie and not to forge, then a hadith is accepted as hasan/sahih ( there is a lot more which happens, just a basic overview) but a hadith is completely solidified if it is: mutawatir. Mutawatir means with multiple chains of narration. So if the same story or words are transmitted by different people.

if you are sking is every sngle hadith in bukhari 100% sahih, well i would guess no, in al of those thousands of hadith, 1 lie could have slipped in, his is because bukhari and al albani and darussalam are al humans, and maybe a lie wasnt spotted or something. If a hadith is sahih we muslims take it, wheterh we like it or not.

if a hadith is sahih it means it is sound and true

So basically, you're saying that even a sahih hadith cannot be 100% true, it could be a lie that have slipped in, and the scholars didn't spot that lie. So my problem is with the hadith regrading drawing, the hadith talks about how drawing things with soul is prohibited. The problem that the prophet (peace be upon him) has cursed the people who draw things with soul, but how come the prophet(Peace upon him) curse those people and the Quran don't mention a thing about drawing things with souls being haram?! Plus that, the scholars have said it's permissible to draw things  with souls in special cases like drawing a criminal, or teaching or etc..But there's no any evidence that suggests that we can draw things with soul in "special cases". I'm looking forward to your answer.

Yes,but however,in the chain there has to be no disruption or Liars,it has to come from a Sahabi himself who WITNESSED Muhammad SAW giving this message.

then I do sincerely believe that hadith is indeed 100% the sayings of the Prophet SAW.
