[quote]Dear brother Sher Ali,
Assalam o Alaikum
I am new in this discussion and want to say my views with my little knowledge. I think the Muslims have three sources for establishing themselves on Islamic guidance. First, the Holy Quran which is the Book of God, the final and conclusive. It is the Word of God and is free from all doubt and speculation. Secondly, the practice of the Holy Prophet, which is called Sunnah. The third source of guidance is hadeeth.
 
As the Holy Prophet was commissioned for the propagation of the Quran, he was also commissioned for establishing the sunnah. Both these tasks were performed by the Holy Prophet as his duty. For instance, when the Prayer services were made obligatory, the Holy Prophet illustrated by his action how many "rakaats" were to be performed in each Prayer service. If you deny Sunnah or Ahadith you do not how many rakaats to pray. In the same way, he illustrated the performance of the pilgrimage. He thus established thousands of his companions on his practice. Same about giving Zakat.
 
Nevertheless, it would be a mistake to imagine that till the ahadeeth were compiled, the Muslims were unaware of the details of Prayer services or did not know the proper way of performing the pilgrimage. The practical illustrations of the sunnah had taught them all the limits and obligations laid down by Islam.
 
A person who is bestowed the understanding of the Quran by Divine grace, and who finds that a hadeeth is opposed to a verse of the Quran, should, out of respect, so far as it is possible, so interpret the hadeeth as to bring it into accord with the Holy Quran, but if this is not possible and cannot by any means be achieved, he should regard the hadeeth as spurious This is better for us. There is no doubt that most of the compilers of hadeeth were very pious and righteous. They tested the accuracy of ahadeeth as far as it was possible and tried to steer clear of such of them as in their opinion were manufactured, and they rejected every hadeeth any narrator of which was of doubtful veracity. We accept its authority subject to the condition that it should not be opposed to the Holy Quran.

For your question regarding punishment of adultery (Stoning). It is very simple that it is not mention in Quran so should not be done. All those orders will be not followed, which are not menined in Quran, but if some ahadiths are not denying Quran, we should follow this. No verse is cancelled in Quran. All Quran should be followed.
  
In last, I have few questions from you?
How may rakaats you pray in fajar prayer? How much Zakat you pay? Is there any detail of pilgrimage in Quran? All detail we know through Sunanh and Ahadith.

I am not saying that Quran is not a complete book. It is a complete book but we should folllow sunnah and ahadiths which are not against Quiran.[/quote]
