Hadith

Ḥadīth (حديث‎ ḥadīth, pl. Aḥādīth, أحاديث, ʼaḥādīth, also "Traditions") in Islam are the record of the words, actions, and silent approval, traditionally attributed to the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Within Islam the authority of hadith as a source for religious law and moral guidance ranks second only to that of the Quran.

In al-Kafi, it is related that Imam al-Sadiq said that the Prophet said: "Recite the Qur'an according to the tones and sounds of the Arabs. Beware of using melodies belonging to people who transgress or commit misdeeds. For, after me, different peoples will chant the Qur'an in a singing and cooing fashion. The monks' incantations are also not allowed for it, for their hearts are facing the wrong way, as are the hearts of those who admire them." 

So this is the general idea of maqamat, which are the traditional musical modes of the Arabs, although not exactly mentioning maqamat in detail.

Quran is the Book of guidance for all and not a text book of science. No doubt Quran has key facts of everything in the universe but knowing those key facts is not available to every one. We need to take the meanings of Quranic verses from the Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) and his Holy Progeny Ahlul Bayt (AS). There are many Hadith's talking about the genes and how every living creature has its own genes which is collected from the genetic structures of his parents and their forefathers back to many generations.

Quranic verses are intact and no one can alter any verse. The enemies of Ahlul Bayt (AS) tried to twist the meanings of many verse to drive it away from its real Tafseer.

Yes it is Haraam to wash the arms three times during Wudhu. There are many Hadeeths in this regard which can be seen in Wasaa'il Al-Shia.

This narration which in Bukhari and Muslim is an evidence that the Prophet (SAWA) was practicing Taqiyya hand he did not remove the situation of Ka'bah which was wrongly done by the people of that time and before them.

'We don't accept any narration from one single narrator, but the content of this narration is mentioned in many of our books of Hadeeth.

We never believe that all the companions left Islam after the passing away of the Prophet Muhammad (SAWA). We believe in Quranic facts (Sura 3, verse 144) stating :(Muhammad is really a messenger before him messengers were sent, if he dies or is killed, you will then turn back on your heels).  Most of Muslims of that society remained as Muslims in faith but did not obey the orders of the Prophet (SAWA) who clearly ordered them to follow and obey Ali when he announced seventy days before his departure that ( Foe whom so ever I am the master, Ali is his master).

IRTADDU ارتدّوا does not mean that they left Islam, but did not fulfill their responsibility to obey the Prophetic orders in following the divine leadership which was been appointed by Allah and the Prophet.

Yes. It is narrated in Al-Ehtijaaj by al-Tabarsi that Ameerul Momineen Ali (AS) was asked about best tribute for him, he replied by reciting the verse 13:43.

 " الاحجتاج " للطبرسي سأل رجل عليّ بن أبي طالب (عليه السّلام) عن أفضل منقبة له ، فقرأ الآية ، وقال : « إيّانا عنى بمَن عنده علم الكتاب » .

There is no doubt that Nubuwwah is only for the prophets, and it was ended by the Last Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) as it is stated in Quran (Sura Al-Ahzab, verse 40) and the very clear and authentic Hadeeth : O Ali, you are from me like Haroun was from Musa, but there is prophet after me. (Saheeh Muslim, Hadeeth 2404), Saheeh Al-Bukhari , Hadeeth 225).

All the twelve Imams from Ahlul Bayt (AS) who are the real successors of the Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) are having the great status from his great status (A Progeny who are from him. Sura 3, verse 34) but not prophets at all. 

We are able to distinguish between Nubuwwah and Imamah, although both of them are from Allah (SWT) and we are absolutely ordered to obey the Infallible Imams as we are been ordered to obey the Prophet (SAWA) because of the fact that every order from the Ibfallible Imams is from the Prophet (SAWA) which is from Allah (SWT).

'We respect our pious Ulama but never claim infallibility to any Aalim.

This narration is not authentic according to the basics of Ilm Al-Rijaal. It is from Abdullah ibn Ka'b ibn Malik. Ka'b ibn Malik was one of the three men who disobeyed the Prophet (SAWA) and did not join the army of the Muslims and were been mentioned in Quran (Al-Tawbah, verse 118). Such weak narrations are mentioned the book of Bukhari to justify the claims of Saqeefah group who have taken away the right of Ameerul Mo'mineen Ali (AS).

Quranic verses are clear that the Prophet (SAWA) helps the believers and he is very sympathetic on them, and he is the source of blessings on the believers.

'The Infallible Imams are the real successors of the Prophet (SAWA) and did and still do the same to help the believers. They are in fact the keys to open the gates of mercy for the believers and we have many authentic narrations stating that.

The most important Hadeeth which contains an obligatory and compulsory order from the Prophet to every Muslims from His time till the day of Judgement is Hadeeth Al-Thaqalain in which the Prophet stated (I am leaving among you two most important things that if you keep follow both of them, you will never go astray; the book of Allah and my progeny Ahlulbayt (AS). This most authentic Hadeeth was narrated both in Shia and Sunni books. These are some of the Sunni books:

1. Saheeh Muslim, Volume 7, Page 123

2.Al-Sunan Al-Khubra by Al-Bayhaqi, Volume 2, Page 138 and Volume 7, Page 30

3. Al-Sunan Al-Khubra by Al-Nasa’ee, Volume 5, Page 51

4. Shaheeh Ibn Khuzaima, Volume 4, Page 63

5. Al-Mo’jam Al-Kabeer by Al-Tabrani, Volume 5, Page 182

6. Musnad Ahmad Ibn Hambal, Volume 4, Page 366

7. Sunan Al-Darreme, Volume 2, Page 431

8. Al-Mussannaf by Ibn Abi Shaibah, Volume 7, Page 418 and many other Sunni books.

The main reason of the problems of the Muslims after Prophet till today is the disobedience of the majority of the Muslims and deviating from the clear orders of the Prophet stated in this Hadeeth. They claim to read Quran, but they left Ahlulbayt

(AS) aside and followed other people. The solution of all the problem of Muslims is in obeying Allah by obeying his Messenger, by implementing his orders in this Hadeeth. When Muslims obey Allah, the Prophet (SAWA) and Ahlulbayt (AS) then they will be on the right path.
