Rejection Of Incorrect Tawatur Actions To Islam
To further clarify the question: Take any action for which we don’t find reasoning in Quran eg method of prostration. How do we know this method is not actually based on some Hadith (try and view this in a vacuum as I know about the seven bones thing) and then this hadith has not been transmitted to us. If the Hadith about beard was not here and the practice came to us from a perspective that it is the command of the prophet ‎﴾ﷺ﴿ the same way we don’t try to find logic for method of sajda or Ruku we would have to concede that beard is a part of the sunnah. @UmerQureshi @faisalharoon
We can surely find out when in history that ijma took place. It has no importance if it’s not coming from the Sahaba and the source of that ijma is unknown. According to Ghamidi sab every bidah could be traced in history and we can easily say when it started.
