Abstract

The Prophet Muhammad's Hadiths are one of the primary sources of Islamic teachings, necessitating meticulous verification to preserve their authenticity. This study examines the sanad and matan criticism of popular hadiths among preachers, focusing on three: the sanctity of the month of Rajab as "Allah's month," the miraculous birth of the Prophet Muhammad circumcised, and the encouragement to seek knowledge even to China. Using a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach, this research evaluates the authenticity of these hadiths through classical and modern references. The results indicate that these hadiths are classified as weak (dha'if) or fabricated (maudhu’) due to critical flaws in their chains of transmission and inconsistencies in their texts. For instance, the hadith on Rajab conflicts with Quranic and authentic prophetic narratives, and the claim of the Prophet’s circumcised birth lacks credible supporting evidence. The study underscores the importance of rigorous sanad and matan analysis to ensure the preservation of Islamic teachings, guiding preachers and society toward reliable sources.

Abstract

This article examines the thoughts and approaches of Robert Gleave in the study of Islamic law, focusing on criticizing his methodology and epistemology. As an orientalist, Gleave adopts a philological and historical approach in researching Islamic law, especially in the Shia tradition. This approach has been criticized by various Muslim scholars for ignoring the normative and transcendental aspects of Islamic law. Moreover, Gleave's skepticism towards classical sources of Islamic law raises questions regarding the validity of his approach in understanding Islamic law as a revelation-based system. The paper also discusses Gleave's bias in interpreting Islamic hermeneutics as well as the limitations of his analysis in applying Islamic law in the context of contemporary Muslim life. Using the perspective of Islamic epistemology, this paper concludes that Gleave's approach needs to be examined more critically so that it is not only Western academically oriented but also respects the principles of Islamic law held by Muslims.
