Narrations (Hadith) Section

Critiquing heritage narrations in the scale of the Holy Quran

The issue of Narrations (Hadith), or what is termed as the "Second Revelation," is one of the most influential matters in shaping the Muslim mind across centuries. In this section, we place these narrations under the lens of scientific criticism to clarify the contradictions they contain, what conflicts with the explicit Quranic text, or what offends sound logic and human values, aiming to reach a purer understanding of religion away from intrusions and fabrications.

This section is currently under update and development; it will be launched soon, God willing.
