[Suchal Riaz]

is it necessary to give three rxnx for a 7 marks qustn?? I mean sumtmyx da qstn does not demand exact rxnx

it always demands. l3 always starts with 5. when u give first point of l3 u get 5 then on each u get 1 if others are also of l3. so commonly we say that we need 3 reasons. and a 7 marks question always has 3 reasons behind it.

 

[Taha Shahab]

how did the compilers of hadis judge between acceptable and unacceptable hadiths? (10)

P1: An introduction telling definitions of Muhadithin, Sanad and Matn and giving an example of Matn.
-Muhadithin are the ones who assess Hadith.
-Sanad is the chain of narrators.
-Matn is the actual text of Hadith.
Example: 'Actions are judged by intentions'

P2: Tests of Sanad followed by an example.
This includes 3 tests of chains and 4 of narrators.
Tests of chain:
1. First person in chain must be companion because only companion could receive teachings from Prophet(PBUH).
2. Chain must be unbroken.
3. The date of birth and date of death of narrators who come before and after in a chain should over lap to ensure that they actually met.
Example:
Chain in which Abdullah bin Umer narrated to Imam Nafi and he narrated to Imam Malik. This is authentic because first person is companion, chain is unbroken and the date of birth and death of Imam Nafi overlaps with Abdullah bin Umer's and Imam Malik's.
Tests of Narrators:
1. They must never found to be lying.
2. They must possess excellent memory.
3. They must be practicing muslims.
4. They must be strong and pious muslims.

P3: Tests of Matn followed by an example.
Hadith must come from more than one chain, if it is brought forward by one chain, it is considered as weak and Khabar-e-Wahid.
Example:
Hazrat Abu Bakr narrated that 'Muslims kissed their thumbs while hearing Prophet's name in Azaan.'
This is considered as weak because
-It is a Khabar-e-Wahid
-It was a public action but still not narrated by many people.
There are 6 tests of Matn.
Tests of Matn:
1. Hadith must not conflict with Quran as Prophet's teaching were a practical demonstration of it.
2. Hadith must not conflict with any other authentic Hadith because Prophet could never give dual expressions.
3. Hadith must not go against common sense because Prophet could never suggest anything illogical.
4. Hadith must not suggest any activity beyond normal experience of people as Prophet could never suggest any super natural activity.
5. Hadith must not give PRECISE details about future as Prophet was not a foreteller.
6. Hadith must not accuse Prophet's family or companions because Prophet, being the model of modesty, could not say such immodest words.

P4: Classification of Hadith.
-Hadith passes all the tests flawlessly=Sahih/Authentic Hadith
-Hadith passes all the tests with the slightest doubt=Hasan/Strong Hadith
-Hadith fails to pass even one test=Zaeef/Mauzu Hadith
-Hadith falsely attributed to Prophet=Mauzu/Fabricated Hadith

In Shaa Allah, you would score complete marks.

 

[Sara I.R]

Do we need to remember all the battles that occured during caliphate of Hazrat Abu Bakr?

Not much details. False prophets and apostasy movements are more important.

 

[Sara I.R]

Totally irrelevant.......may be only partially relevant, not more than 3 marks answer!

LOl..in all para's of the books you have to mention details..use some common sense dude.

 

[Taha Shahab]

The info on this page is WRONG! I'm only sharing this so that you guys could have an idea on how to answer this type of question.

Totalf number of Ahadith in Sahih Bukhari is 7397 and excluding the repeated ones, its number comes down to 2762.

 

[Taha Shahab]

are there any chances of these types of question coming?
outline the main teachings of the hadis you have studied, from the passages set for special study, about the responsibilities of muslim individuals. (10)
outline the main teachings of the hadis you have studied about the importance of muslim communal life. (10)

Communal is imp.

 

[Suchal Riaz]

Not much details. False prophets and apostasy movements are more important.

we can not say most important but as much imp as wars with persians ans byzantines. candidiates write much about them and less about false prophets and apostasy movement. these are equally imp.

 

[Sparky123]

Here is a rare question for Islamiat Paper 2
"Why are the rightly guided Caliphs (may Allah be pleased with them), called so?"
It'd appreciated if replied to. JazakAllah.

Doesn't anyone have an idea of the answer?

 

[Suchal Riaz]

Doesn't anyone have an idea of the answer?

it can be a four marks question and i think it would be about a single caliph not about all. read the introduction from mustafa drapper ans FNM book of rightly guided caliphs for answer.

 

[Fallen316]

Hadis in legal thinking, significance of hadis in thought and action in Islam and Hadis as a source of guidance.
they're all kind of the same thing, RIGHT ?

 

[Taha Shahab]

Doesn't anyone have an idea of the answer?

We just have to tell why were they special.

 

[Taha Shahab]

Hadis in legal thinking, significance of hadis in thought and action in Islam and Hadis as a source of guidance.
they're all kind of the same thing, RIGHT ?

Source of guidance: How its used by us.
In this answer, you'll write importance of laws of Ahadith and it's relation with Quran.
Legal thinking: How its used by scholars and jurists.
In this question, you'll write importance of laws of Ahadith and it's relation with Quran concisely, then we'll right its use by the immidiate successors, then its relation with Ijma followed by an example, and finally its relation with Qiyas followed by an example.

could you plz explain the hadis relation with ijma and qiyas

 

[Suchal Riaz]

Hadis in legal thinking, significance of hadis in thought and action in Islam and Hadis as a source of guidance.

examples are almost the same but the way of writing and use of words in a bit different.

 

[brainswipe]

examples are almost the same but the way of writing and use of words in a bit different.

actually the material is same but the point of view is different!!

 

[ISFSAT]

Hadis in legal thinking, significance of hadis in thought and action in Islam and Hadis as a source of guidance.

yup..

 

[Taha Shahab]

could you plz explain the hadis relation with ijma and qiyas

You dont really have to stress much on explaining relation, one or two statements would be enough. For example:
Hadith is also used with Ijma/Qiyas to work out new Islamic laws as shown in the following example.
Then write the example.
