Nature Of Hadith (View Of Ghamidi Sahab)
Where has Ghamidi Sahab written that Deen can be extracted from Hadith? In fact Ghamidi Sahab is pointing towards another fact i.e. The whole corpus of hadith is empty from any permanent religious injunctions ( independent directives/Mustaqil biz-zaat ehkamat ). Rather, whatever is available in hadith corpus in the domain of religion either belongs to explanation and elucidation of the religion ( تفہیم و تبیین ) or describes the exemplary way ( اسوۂ حسنہ ) in which the Prophet (sws) followed this religion. Both of these are branches of permanent injunctions available in Quran or Sunnah. Within this sphere , every person who after being convinced of a Hadith accepts it as one containing the words, deeds or tacit approvals of the Prophet (sws) must follow it . In no circumstances can he evade or ignore it; in fact, it becomes incumbent upon him to accept any directive or decision of the Prophet (sws) found in that Hadith .
