Abstract

Joseph Schacht, through the book The Muhammadan Jurisprudence, raises a criticism of sanad which considers that hadith did not start from the Prophet, but from tabi'in. It's just that Schacht's concept is considered weak because he is inconsistent and forgets a lot of data and important aspects in the study of hadith. This article appears as the author's attempt to explain the concepts promoted by Schacht and also some of the problems carried out by Schacht. With the help of the descriptive-analytical method combined with a comparison of experts' arguments as a medium of analysis, it can be seen how gaps emerge in Schacht's attitude. The results of the analysis explain that the Schacht controversy is related to; first, Schacht's rejection of the hadith which is not in line with the data of the companions which are part of the hadith; secondly, the theory built by Schacht can be said to be very weak, because much of the data found refutes Schacht's hypothesis; third, there is subjectivity in the use of data and analysis results; and fourth, Schacht, who is known as an expert in Islamic law, should study hadith, but he does not believe that hadith comes from the Prophet.

Abstract

The issue of modernity has exerted a considerable influence on contemporary life, particularly through the persistent epistemological dichotomy that separates religion and science. This binary opposition fundamentally contradicts religious principles that serve as comprehensive guides for human life, especially given the numerous Prophetic traditions (hadith) that explicitly address scientific realities. This article examines integrative methodological approaches bridging hadith studies and scientific inquiry, framed by two primary research questions: First, what constitutes a scientific approach in hadith scholarship? Second, to what extent can scientific methodology be applied in interpreting, comprehending, and deriving meaning from hadith texts? Employing qualitative library research methodology, this study demonstrates the critical importance of an integrative approach in addressing complex contemporary issues that transcend traditional halal-haram juridical frameworks. The findings reveal that scientific approaches to hadith studies make significant contributions to expanding religious discourse beyond its conventional doctrinal-immanent limitations. As this methodology gains broader acceptance, hadith literature is progressively liberated from perceptions of rigid normativity or obsolescence, emerging instead as a dynamic intellectual tradition capable of substantive engagement with modern epistemological developments.

Abstract

The discourse on hadith transmission within the Sufi tradition presents a compelling subject for inquiry, particularly concerning its inherent dynamics and the intellectual tensions arising between Sufi practitioners and ḥadīth scholars. While Sufis define themselves as guardians of Prophetic teachings through spiritual realization and divine connection, a paradoxical divergence emerges: their methods of transmission often contravene the principles of validation recognized by mainstream scholarship. Departing from this apparent contradiction, this study investigates the epistemological framework through which Sufis engage with hadith and the methodological principles underpinning their transmission practices. Employing a descriptive-qualitative methodology in library research methodology, relevant data were systematically collected, verified for authenticity, classified thematically, and subjected to critical analysis and reflection. This inquiry reveals that the transformation within Sufi circles and the doctrine of taṣawwuf itself is fundamentally shaped by historical shifts, with each epoch developing distinct forms and modes of praxis. The principal finding of this research lies in the demonstration that the evolution of transmission practices follows a discernible trajectory: it originated within the traditional framework governed by the isnād system, transitioned into a phase marked by the simplification or truncation of isnāds, and culminated in the emergence of methods radically distinct from the established tradition of hadith scholars. This final stage is characterized by alternative methodologies based on kashf and ru’yā. The adoption of these alternative methods stems from the Sufi ambition to maintain a continuous spiritual connection with the Prophet, a connection they contend is accessible primarily through contemplative practice. While contemplation possesses a basis for legitimacy within Prophetic tradition, its application as a formal channel for transmitting ḥadīth risks replicating a historical peril: the proliferation of fabricated hadiths. This risk arises from the inherent difficulty of verifying the chain of transmission (isnād) and the matn of such experientially-received knowledge through the systematic criteria developed within the classical science of hadith.
