THE QUES WAS TAKEN FROM 2056 PAPERS AND MOULDED A LITTLE BIT
Q: Why do Muslims need to know about the Prophet’s Hadith and his actions
[sunnah]? [10]
• what the Prophet said, did and by what he approved is second in importance to
the Qur’an [1]
• Allah Himself directs Muslims in the Qur’an ‘Say, “Obey Allah and His
Messenger”, but if they turn back Allah does not love those who reject faith’ [3:32];
‘Obey Allah and obey the Prophet’ [64:12] [1]
• Prophet said ‘I leave with you two things. If you hold fast to them both you will
never be misguided: the Book of Allah and my sunnah’ [1]
• Hadith are important sources of explaining teachings of the Qur’an in more detail [1]
• how to pray is stressed in Qur’an but details of how this is done are found in the
Prophet’s words recorded in Hadith [1]
• details of zakat, Hajj and fasting during Ramadan also from the Hadith [1]
• Prophet laid down principles [shariah] regarding every aspect of life: buying,
selling, contracts, leases, inheritance which is all part of his Hadith [1]
• companions of the Prophet remembered and wrote down his sayings, realising
these were a precious source of guidance for Muslims [hence all the Hadith
literature] [1]
• during his lifetime the Prophet asked his companions to make knowledge of his
Hadith widely known but take care nothing was falsely attributed to him [1]
• this was made clear in the Farewell Address ‘He who is present here shall carry
this message to the one who is absent’ [1]
• Muslims turn to the actions [sunnah] of the Prophet to emulate him. By doing this
they hope their actions are acceptable to Allah [1]
^ These are the points but u needed elaboration by giving quotations with examples. Plus u had to mention more benefits.(atleast 1 para). valid points will be accepted. By Allah's grace i wrote 10 out of 12 points given inn the above answer and also mentioned extra points plus quotations aswell. IA i will get full markss... p to the examiner though.
