On your second point, that a hadith is not just a text, but has a context behind it, please provide the detailed context of this statement from Prophet. Where can we find it ? Please explain if he meant to exclude the evil of polytheism from this directive to Muslims to stop the evil. This hadith is relevant to the discussion, unless it is proven that Prophet didn’t mean to include polytheism in his comment.","title":"Al-Ma’idah 5:2 يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تُحِلُّواْ شَعَٰٓئِرَ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا ٱلشَّهۡرَ ٱلۡحَرَامَ وَلَا ٱلۡهَدۡىَ وَلَا ٱلۡقَلَٰٓئِدَ وَلَآ ءَآمِّينَ ٱلۡبَيۡتَ ٱلۡحَرَامَ يَبۡتَغُونَ فَضۡلًا مِّن رَّبِّهِمۡ وَرِضۡوَٰنًاۚ وَإِذَا حَلَلۡتُمۡ فَٱصۡطَادُوا۟ۚ وَلَا يَجۡرِمَنَّكُمۡ شَنَـَٔانُ قَوۡمٍ أَن صَدُّوكُمۡ عَنِ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ أَن تَعۡتَدُواۘ وَتَعَاوَنُواْ عَلَى ٱلۡبِرِّ وَٱلتَّقۡوَىٰۖ وَلَا تَعَاوَنُواْ عَلَى ٱلۡإِثۡمِ وَٱلۡعُدۡوَٰنِۚ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَۖ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلۡعِقَابِ English – Pickthall O ye who believe!

Otherwise it’s hard to reach an agreement on the temple issue The quran is full of verses telling prophet mohammad SW to just convey the message and whether they accept it or not should not be his concern. Killing infidels was a punishment of God to His criminals that He asked his messenger to carry out in His behalf. At times God did this punishment to the people of His messengers through natural calamity or other means.

But language in general is not dependent on any book, neither is Sunnah. In case of any additions or changes, the same can be traced back to their source. Sometimes the source is undue influence of Ahadith (can be traced back), sometimes its just fiqh (can also be traced back to its source) and sometimes its only a biddah (whose time of initiation can also be easily known, for example, Eid Milad-un-Nabi as you mentioned somewhere else. Even the people celebrating it don’t disagree on it’s history). Sunnah being practiced among Muslims, just like analogy of language, doesn’t need to be looked at to be verified. If someone wants to look at the written history, they can refer to the books of fiqh (just like you refer to dictionary to look for obsolete and archaic words or sometimes for the etymology of any word). None of these activities challenge the authenticity of the original practice (i.e. Sunnah or language).","title":"How can we confirm if a sunnah is tawatur or not. If we take the case study of the Quraysh they had added bidah into the sunnah of Ibrahim عليه السلام . They had tawatur to their old ancestors. My question is isn’t tawatur sometimes subjective and also how can we confirm it without any textual references? Also Christians have an ijma and they would also say tawatur on Jesus being the son of God and rising from the grave.
