Answer(s) X Excellent   Good   Satisfactory   Unsatisfactory Question Did the course help you resolve some of your questions about Islam, if any, please state? Answer(s) Yes, indeed, it helped resolve critical confusions about Hadith. Your above question is a little ambiguous. Do you want me to state my question(s) that the course resolved or to ask further question(s) if I have any. The most important question the course resolved is: How can Hadith be the basic source of Islam when its authenticity may be questioned? And my further question is: When hadith tells us that the Prophet (SAW) prohibited us to eat beasts (which is not present in the Qur’an), doesn’t it add to the contents of the Qu’ran and Sunnah? Question Difficulties encountered in covering the course Answer(s) It was a little hard to analyze the proper pronunciation of the English version of the Arabic words included in the text, for instance, Tabqatal-Kabir or Imam Dhahabi etc. If these words, wherever used, were also written in Arabic in brackets, it’d have been quite helpful. Question Topics that you enjoyed the most Answer(s) 1. Principles of Acceptance or Rejection of Hadith Reports 2. History of Compilation 3. Categorization of Hadith Question Any topic that you would like to add to this course? Answer(s) The names of the authentic books of ahadith along with a very brief description of their writers. Question Would you like to become a Moderator of this course? Answer(s) Definitely yes but, I think, I'm literary not that worthy of being a moderator. However, if I can be of any service to you, it'd be a great honour for me. Question Would you like to do some advanced assignments on this course? Answer(s) Yes, please - I'd be happy to take any assignment given. Question Overall Comments / Suggestions/ Answer(s) All my love, prayers and respect go out to you, and specially esteemed Javed Ahmad Ghamidi, for dedicating your lives for the sake of spreading the truth. I wish I were a part of your organization too. Our beloved teacher, Mr. Ghamidi, is wisdom personified: an exceptional researcher, writer and speaker most wanted in this time of confusion & chaos about Islam. His literary service of reopening and scrutinizing the closed chapters of Islam places him among the best scholars of all times. But I’m extremely sorry to see that like most of the great scholars of Ummah, he’s not accepted by the majority of Muslims in his lifetime - people even don’t hesitate to abuse him… But I’m sure he’s our National Hero and people will recognize and miss him once he’d leave this world. I wish, I wish we take maximum guidance from him in the religious matters while he’s among us. May Allah accept your efforts of spreading His D’in and bless you all with nothing but the best in the hereafter. (A’min!)
