Salam bro,
Salam bro,
But hadith itself needs explanations. How can can it be its an explanation of the Quran, when sometimes itself needs explanation
Now if the hadith explains the Quran why do we have reports that people like Abu Bakr was burning the hadiths.
Secondly if as they claim that the Quran was put together in a book by uthman why he left out the hadiths which are suppose to be the explanation of the Quran.
We also know they are many verses and chapters that have no hadith explanation. Now who will explain those chapters.
Hadiths have so much contradictory statements that it leaves us in doubt
Example
How long after revelation commenced did the Prophet (pbuh) live in Mecca and Medina?
There are a number of hadith in Bukhari and Muslim on this subject.
Bukhari Volume 4, Book 56, Number 747:
Narrated Rabia bin Abi Abdur-Rahman:
I heard Anas bin Malik describing the Prophet saying, "He was of medium height amongst the people, neither tall nor short; he had a rosy color, neither absolutely white nor deep brown; his hair was neither completely curly nor quite lank. Divine Inspiration was revealed to him when he was forty years old. He stayed ten years in Mecca receiving the Divine Inspiration, and stayed in Medina for ten more years. When he expired, he had scarcely twenty white hairs in his head and beard." Rabi'a said, "I saw some of his hairs and it was red. When I asked about that, I was told that it turned red because of scent."
Bukhari Volume 4, Book 56, Number 748:
Narrated Anas:
Allah's Apostle was neither very tall nor short, neither absolutely white nor deep brown. His hair was neither curly nor lank. Allah sent him (as an Apostle) when he was forty years old. Afterwards he resided in Mecca for ten years and in Medina for ten more years. When Allah took him unto Him, there was scarcely twenty white hairs in his head and beard.
Bukhari Volume 5, Book 58, Number 190:

Allah's Apostle was inspired Divinely at the age of forty. Then he stayed in Mecca for thirteen years, and then was ordered to migrate, and he migrated to Medina and stayed there for ten years and then died.
Bukhari Volume 5, Book 58, Number 242:

Anas b. Malik reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) was neither very conspicuously tall nor short-statured, and his color was neither glaringly white nor brown; his hair was neither very curly nor very straight; Allah commissioned him (as a Prophet) when he had reached the age of forty years, and he stayed in Mecca for ten years and for ten years in Medina; Allah took him away when he had just reached the age of sixty, and there had not been twenty white hair in his head and beard.
Muslim Book 030, Number 5805:
'Ammar, the freed slave of Banu Hashim, reported: I asked Ibn 'Abbas how old was he when death overtook the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him). He said: I little know that such a thing is not known to a man like you who belong to his people. He said: I asked people about it but they differed with me, and I liked to know your opinion about it. He said: Do you know counting? He said: Yes. He then said: Bear this in mind very well that he was commissioned (as a Prophet) at the age of forty, and he stayed in Mecca for fifteen years; sometime in peace and sometime in dread, and (lived) for ten years after his migration to Medina.
Contradictions within Bukhari

Bukhari 5:58:242 and 5:59:742 – He was 63 years old.
How long did the Prophet (pbuh) stay in Mecca after revelation commenced?
Bukhari 4:56:747 and 4:56:748 – He stayed in Mecca for 10 years.
Bukhari 5:58:190 and 5:59:741 – He stayed in Mecca for 13 years.
What about the hadith of suckling a ground up man and which is reported by Aisha
What about the hadith of Prophet Muhammad marrying aisha at the age of 9.
What is it that made Prophet Muhammad got attracted to a kid? Really!
What about the the hadith of doing a french kiss with his grandson hassan. If you can't believe in this hadith why would you believe In other hadiths narrated by these same people?
You will see hadith proponents trying to explain these hadiths. So in other words hadith in itself need an explanation.
May Allah guide as all
