Christian/Muslim ThreadsIslamic Perspectives of The Death & Return of Jesuswa alaikum assalam Unite Agreed. It is aserted that they did as the last step of authentication, because it seemed as the right scholarly thing to do. Your desposition is correct, I never thaught of it that way due to what I said " ...it seemed as the right scholarly thing to do." which is in fact as your called it "a novel concept" Thus, we have even more reason to use Quran. As a matter of fact Allah gives us the authority to apply the Quran to WHATEVER it is to authenticate it, also by Applying the Furqan also [3:1-4]. I do remember a hadith, its "isnad" was of Hasan Hadeeth that reported the Prophet to have said if anything is writen about him that contradicts the Quran to reject it which of course as you said the Hadeeth Scholars did not focus on this rule primarly that became "a novel concept" but more relied on the authenicity of its chain of transmission instead. wassalaam |
