What Is Hadith?
Hadith refers to the recorded sayings, actions, approvals, and silent approvals of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. While the Quran is the direct word of Allah, the Hadith explains and expands on the Quranic teachings. Studying books on Hadith allows Muslims to follow the Sunnah (Prophetic tradition) and apply it in everyday life.
Hadiths cover a wide range of topics like:
-
Worship (Salah, fasting, zakat, hajj)
-
Moral conduct
-
Social interactions
-
Business ethics
-
Family and relationships
