[quote][quote]Thanks Abullah for your reply. Here is My response:

1stly, plz Note that "Ijmaa" means that All people Collectively Claim that there is No Doubt OR Contradiction in it Whereas "Tawaatur" means Generation-to-Generation Continuous Transmission (verses Person-to-Person Transmission generally Termed as "Akhbaar-e-Aahaad"). I hope this helps as I've tried to Explain them in simple words instead of Defining them)

2ndly, It's V V V Important to Understand the Difference between Hadith & Sunnah as Both have NO resemblence to eachother. Hadith, as v Well known, are the Reportings of Saying, Actions & "Taqreer" of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and weren't, as U've said, collected in the Forms of Books until 200 years after his death.
BUT
"SUNNAH" is the Practicle Part of Islam like Prayer & many other things & Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) Taught them to his Companions as he taught them the holy Quran. In fact this Sunnah is an Established Tradition since Prophet Ibrahim (pbuh) 7 was V well known not only to people of Arabia (bani Ismaeel) ONLY but to "bani Israeel" (Jews & Christians) as well. This is the Reason that we Do Not SEE any Detail of Prayer etc in the Quran. If U r really interested to Understand the Sunnah Properly then I'll suggest & request that Plz Go thru the Course "Understanding the Sunnah" offered here at the Site. (Just click here & Select the Course & read the Material: http://www.studying-islam.org/courselist.aspx)

If U've understood this Difference Even to Some Extent then I hope that NOW you'll be able to appriciate What I said in my Last Post. Muslim Ummah as a Whole believes that Both Quran & Sunnah have been trasmitted to us By the "Ijmaa & Tawaatur" of the Ummah, One Orally with its Text; The Quran & Other Practically; the Sunnah.

Plz tell Me How much NOW u've understood this Becoz only then we can GO Ahead in our Discussion

May Allah show us the Right Path

I appreciate your time brother Ibrahim.

I get what you're saying now. Sunna is kind of technical way to help you live the complete lifestyle, and help explain the 5 'arkan', passed through the generations. I'll probably need more time to investigate because I thought they were only written from memory 200 years after Mohammed's death. But hadith is more trusted sayings that should be evaluated because there are some possibly false ones.
Insha Allah I will take this course or one like it in the future but I have very busy course load lately.
