[quote]Brother Usmani, Dr Rishad has conducted himself in a very appropriate manner and in my humble opinion has made a valid point. I understand that in your opinion the Qur'an cannot be interpreted without hadith. But others like me believe that The Qur’an and the Sunnah hold a pivotal place as the source of understanding of religion. The Sunnah and the Qur’an do not abrogate each other. They cannot be overruled by Hadith. Both these sources contain the entire religion.  Hadith can thus explain these sources or provide the best example set by the Holy Prophet (pbuh); it cannot abrogate or contradict the basic corpus of religion residing in the Qur’an and the Sunnah.  Hadith literature does not add to the content of religion; it offers an explanation of the Holy Qur’an and the Sunnah, and dictates sense and reason.

As I understand hadith is a khabar i wahid. and in my humble opinion Allah would not use a prophet and messenger to give some aspects of religion and a hand ful of people to deliver the remaining bit.

I have discussed this  issue before and I feel we agree to disagree.I am not trying to convince you but merely raising the point that if people have different opinion from us we should debate this issues academically and with reasons not by degrading them. We must practice the religion we preech and propagate.[/quote]
