Bukhari And Muslim Think Quran Isn't Complete?!

[Thaqalyn]

Before Sunnis come to us with a weak hadith and say 'Look! The Shia believe the Quran is incomplete!'. First we should say, they are weak and were compiled by fallible people. We don't believe the Quran is incomplete. Then we should say 'How about these which you say are completely perfect?'(I'm only quoting from Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim).

 

Umar ibn al Khattab said, Certainly Allah sent Muhammad with the truth and revealed him the Book. One of the revelations which came to him was the verse of stoning. We read it and understood it. The Messenger of God stoned and we stoned after him. I am concerned that if time goes on, some one may say ‘ By God we do not find the verse of stoning in the Book of God ‘; thus, the Muslims will deviate by neglecting a commandment the Almighty revealed. Al-Bukhari recorded in his Sahih, v8, pages 209-210

 

According to Umar, there was a verse of stoning revealed when we know there is no verse of stoning, and he's concerned that people will stop stoning because that bit is missing. 3 options here:1) Bukhari isn't sahih 2) Umar is a liar 3) the Quran is actually incomplete. It's obviously the first or the second.

 

If I were not afraid of the fact that people may say that ‘Umar has added to the Qur’an extra (verses), I would have written the Verse al- Rajm (stoning to death of married adulterers) with my own hands. Sahih al-Bukhari, vol 9, p212.Here, Umar says he would have added the verse with his own hands if he wasn't afraid of the people (whole host of implications about the persona of Umar there, but that is a different topic).

 

Aisha said that the Qur’anic verse enjoining stoning for adultery was written on a leaf, but the leaf was accidentally eaten by a goat while the Prophet Muhammad was on his death-bed, and thus the verse was lost. Sahih Muslim, the book of nursing (al-Ridha), v10 pages 29 (Arabic).

We used to read a Chapter from the Qur’an similar to Bara’ah in length and seriousness, but I forgot it. I can remember from the Chapter only the following words:Should a son of Adam own two valleys full of wealth, he should seek a third valley and nothing would fill Ibn Adam’s abdomen but the soil.Sahih Musllim Chapter CCCXCI, p500, Tradition #2286. 

 

If I were a Sunni and I read those ahadith, I would have to ponder as to whether these 'sahih' books are actually sahih- just a side note- the book of Nikah in Sahih Bukhari contains some shocking ahadith which are an insult to the Messenger (pbuh) and I will make an article about that inshallah. 

 

To conclude, Bukhari and Muslim think that that there was an ayah about stoning, a whole Surah the size of al Bar'ah is missing, and, oh, I almost forgot, Allah can't protect his holy book from a goat.

As far as I know if the aHadith contradict the Quran, the Quran takes precedence no?

Correct, but if you are a Sunni, you 100% maintain that these books are completely authentic. That is the issue. How can they be authentic when they mock the book of Allah like this?

[Ali Musaaa :)]

No, that isn't true. 

[Ethics]

No, that isn't true. 

 

Well, maybe not all, but I would say the non-proto sunnis. Go look at their tv channels in the middle east and ask them. You will get that they are sahih because that is the view of their imams of the schools of thought.

 

Yes I know its from wiki, but check the source out:

 

Sunni Muslims view this as one of the three most trusted collections of hadith along with Sahih Muslim and Muwatta Imam Malik.^[1] In some circles, it is considered the most authentic book after the Quran.^[2][3]

 

Also I got this from http://www.sahih-bukhari.com/

 

 

Imam Bukhari lived a couple of centuries after the Prophet's (saw) death and worked extremely hard to collect his ahadeeth. Each report in his collection was checked for compatibility with the Qur'an, and the veracity of the chain of reporters had to be painstakingly established. Bukhari's collection is recognized by the overwhelming majority of the Muslim world to be one of the most authentic collections of the Sunnah of the Prophet(pbuh).

 

Bukhari (full name Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Ismail bin Ibrahim bin al-Mughira al-Ja'fai) was born in 194 A.H. and died in 256 A.H. His collection of hadeeth is considered second to none. He spent sixteen years compiling it, and ended up with 2,602 hadeeth (9,082 with repetition). His criteria for acceptance into the collection were amongst the most stringent of all the scholars of ahadeeth.

I've asked a Sunni Hadith Scholar myself this very question, and he's response was they are considered Saheeh [all of them]. However, I have read and seen other Scholars disagreeing who are equally, and perhaps more knowledgable. 

 

Shi'a need to get over it and focus on our own ahadith. Majority of Shi'a don't even know the names of our four main Books but spend their time trying to prove Sunni's wrong. Its about time we give the polemics a rest and leave interfaith and sectarian dialogue to those who are qualified. 

[Sumerian]

Actually, Allamah al-Albani said it is not 100% authentic. Salafis' don't believe it is, although most Sunnis' do.

Although many remake Sahih versions have been made of other books by Allamah al-Albani, the majority didn't want him to make one of Sahih Muslim and Sahih al-Bukhari.

Yes, that is what I'm trying to get at brother, the mainstream believe it is completely authentic and without fault, and I am asking, how can they say that when both are clearly saying that parts of the Quran are missing? That is the question, and so far not a single Sunni has said anything regarding this issue.

Sunnis with nothing to say? Normally it takes a while to beat them in these debates but this one is something else...

Have you ever watched zakir naik and William Campbell's debates about the authenticity of Quran and bible...don't you think dr William Campbell would have won the debate or even got an upper hand if there wasn't explanations for the above Hadith...smarty pants

Ps. I'm no supporter of zakir naik but when it comes to debating OTHER faiths we have to admit he rocks

The verse of Rajm (stoning) are in Shia books as well. 

 

Again, as I explained elsewhere, there are different categories of abrogation.  One category is a verse the application of which was abrogated but the verse itself is recited.  For example, the verse which says that one should not approach prayers while intoxicated.

 

The other category is a verse whose recitation was abrogated (we do not recite it so it is not in the Qur'an) but it's application is not (abrogated).  For example, the verse of stoning.

 

The third category is a verse whose recitation and application were abrogated.

Brother, I hope you realize we have multiple Sahih hadeeth (in al-Kaafi and Man Laa Yahduruh al-Faqih) that talk about the verse of stoning and how it is not in the current Qur'aan. The hadeeth are authentic by any scholar's standards, but we, as well as Sunnis, do not interpret those hadeeth to mean tahreef, rather it was abrograted, mainly a naskh al-Tilaawah, with the hukm staying in effect. Please brother, read our books very carefully before delving into Sunni-Shia discussions. 

 

 

Here are some of our scholars view on naskh (abrogation):

 

 

al-Tusi:

"And they differed in the method of abrogation in four ways:
1.) People Say: it is permitted to abrogation Hukm and tilaawah (recitation) but can (only abrogate) together (?)
2.) And Others say: It is permitted to abrogate Hukm without tilaawah (recitation)
3.) And Others say: It is permitted to abrogate the Qur’aan from LawH al-maHfoodh like the abrogation of a book from a previous book
4.) And the fourth group (says): It is permitted to abrogate tilaawah alone, and the Hukm alone, and them together – and this is SaHeeH (correct opinion) – and we indicated upon this, and the widespread corruption of types in Al-`Uddah fee Usool Al-Fiqh (Al-Toosi’s other Fiqh Book)"

Source:

Al-Toosi, Al-Tibyaan fee Tafseer Al-Qur'aan, vol. 1, pg. 392

 

al-Hillee:

“It is haraam to touch (verses that) abrogated the ruling specifically, without abrogation of tilaawah (recitation) specifically”

Source:

Al-Hillee, Qawaa'id Al-aHkaam, vol. 1, pg. 210

 

al-Rawandi:

“The Abrogation in law is of three types: abrogation of Hukm (judgment) without vocalization (recitation), abrogation of vocalization (recitation) without Hukm (judgment), and abrogation of both of them”

Its long discussion but i want clarification of these points.

1. Let us assume removal of a whole chapter of Quran was due to abrogation, then its admitted fact that Quran present has abrogating (Nasikh) and abrogated (Mansookh) both kind of verses then how they were removed from Quran as reported by Umer?

2. Is there any hadith where prophet pbuh said "Go and remove that verse which is being abrogated by such and such verse"? The answer is no therefore the argument put forward by Sunnis that these hadths in Sunni sources are only talking about Nasikh and Mansokh verses is totaly false, frivolous, baseless and without basic understanding of Quran which contain both Nasikh and Mansookh verses and it is not so that abrogated is removed from content of Quran.

[muslim720]

I remember I went to a masjid years ago and asked if they have copies of the Qur'an to give out to a couple of missionaries that happened to knock on our door.  They only came back to collect the copies of the Qur'an.  But they never returned for further discussions.

 

Nevertheless, one of the board members (at the masjid) said that they were running low on Qur'an.  When I inquired, he said that someone donated an entire shipment of Qur'ans but when they started reading one of the copies, they found a little error (either a verse or word was missing....something).  They ended up getting rid of the entire shipment.

 

So I find this "I am okay with one verse being abrogated but one entire chapter is too much" notion ridiculous.  If a Qur'an is tampered, it is tampered.  It is qualitative, not quantitative!

The whole thing began thus that we and the Syrians met in an encounter although we believe in one and the same Allah and the same Prophet, and our message in Islam is the same. We did not want them to add anything in the belief in Allah or in acknowledging His Messenger (Allah bless him and his descendants) nor did they want us to add any such thing. In fact, there was complete unity except that we differed on the question of `Uthman's blood while we were free of responsibility for it. We suggested to them to appease the situation by calming the temporary irritation and pacifying the people till matters settled down and stabilized when we would gain strength to put matters right.

The Hadith is authentic 3 of your top scholars can't have got it wrong and brother Nader got it right....that's just ridiculous..I have the upmost respect for brother Nader but I disagree with him here....

Now...coming to your point where you have to reject this Hadith because it contradicts the book of Allah swt then I guess you skimmed past the part where majlisi commented on the Hadith...

""The khabar (hadeeth) is SaHeeH and it is obvious that this khabar (hadeeth) and other SaHeeH ones like it are clear about the Qur'aan being shortened and changed, and in my opinion, this is mutaawatir in meaning, and discarding these narrations would lead us to rejecting all akhbaar (narrations) in general."

If you had an ounce of knowledge about Hadith science then you would understand what majlisi means.

So simply put you haven't refuted a thing and your argument of "you can reject sahih Hadith" just holds no weight.....nice try better luck next time...

At the bare minimum I think it's safe to say majlisi believed the quran was shortened etc

What ijtehad about Quran are you talking about, about which verse? I had like to know. Thanks.

If you had an ounce of knowledge about Hadith science then you would understand what majlisi means.

 

He views the reports as mutawatir but so what? Is he some sort of infallible hujjah?

 

At the bare minimum I think it's safe to say majlisi believed the quran was shortened etc

 

I never denied that, but I said that the hadīth is not sahīh.

 

Shall we open up the other Sihah al Sittah? There's a hadīth where Umar says the original Quran has 1,250,000 words!

lol that's a different hadīth which is about supposed abrogation. Your talking about the 17000 verses one! lol.

Are you feeling alright??? No really..read the link again and again and again

Like I said I don't want to dwell on whether the Hadith is sahih or not I'm more concerned with majlisi's comments regarding this hadeeth...if you had bothered reading them...

"He is not some sort of blind hujjah like you take upon yourselves for Bukhari and Muslim!"

Thank god for that!!!!

"He views the reports as mutawatir but so what? Is he some sort of infallible hujjah?"

I think you're missing the part where he believes in shortening of quran etc..even infallibility has it's limits (sigh)...

Open up whatever you like but let's get past majlisi first

You can keep avoiding it but we're still waiting for the reply for a removal of a whole chapter the size opt al Bara'ah...
