3. The only revelation/inspiration given to Muhammad was the Qur’an. That is, it is the only guidance from Allah that reaches him.[/quote]Again prove this from Quran. 
Read the translation of the verse

066.003 When the Prophet disclosed a matter in confidence to one of his consorts, and she then divulged it (to another), and [b][red]Allah made it known to him[/red][/b], he confirmed part thereof and repudiated a part. Then when he told her thereof, she said, &quot;Who told thee this? &quot;He said, &quot;[b][red]He told me Who knows and is well-acquainted[/red] [/b] (with all things).&quot;

Al-Qur'an, 066.003 (At-Tahrim [Banning, Prohibition])
According to this ayah Allah informed Prophet Mohammed that one of his wife have disclosed his secret. Could you tell me in which ayah Allah SW told this to the prophet. Clearly, Allah SW have told something to the prophet which is not their in Quran.
From the context, its clear that this ayah was revealed after the incident.
Kindly, don't change the topic. We are discussing Hadith authenticity

This one is easy, so ill answer it now.  The other one you mentioned Ill answer later inshallah.

In the case of the ayah above, Allah does not say he revealed to him the fact that one wife told another a secret, he says adzharahu llahu, that is, Allah made it appear/known to him, we see from the verse that when his wife informed another (of the secret) Allah made it appear/known to him.  This was probably either that he saw it, or that another of the wives let it slip in conversation etc... by the will of Allah so as to make the ill action of the wife who told, manifest.

And as regards the prophets response to his wife when she asked him who told him, the answer can be taken as &quot;The All knowing and fully acquainted made me know (made it known to me) (nabba'ny)&quot;...  To understand it any other way is to contradict: -

“And when Our clear communications are recited to them, those who hope not for Our meeting say: Bring a Qur’an other than this or change it. Say: It is not for me to change it of myself; [b]I only follow what has been revealed to me;[/b] surely I fear, if I disobey my Lord, the punishment of a mighty day.” 
(10:15)

So even if for argument's sake we were to posit that Allah TOLD him (which Allah makes no claim of), then it STILL would not be a part of our guidance as it is not a part of the Qur'an.

“Surely We have revealed the Book to you with the truth that you may [b]judge between people by means of that which Allah has taught you;[/b] and be not an advocate on behalf of the treacherous.”
(4:105)

Here what Allah has taught him is directly linked to the book that is the Qur'an.
