We explore how Al-A'mash fabricated an anti-mourning hadith to delegitimize Shi'a practices after Karbala. Analysis of transmission chains reveals his role as the true originator, with Sufyan creating false isnads to enhance the hadith's perceived authenticity.
‘Ikrimah’s Kharijite leanings influenced his transmission of hadiths advocating immediate execution for apostates, shaping later Islamic jurisprudence. Imam Malik, however, adopted a more lenient stance based on a weakly transmitted narration from Umar, raising doubts about its authenticity and historical accuracy.
Hadith compilations were shaped (in-part) by political power, with rulers enforcing "official" teachings and punishing dissenting scholars. This led to censorship and selective transmission, casting doubt on hadith reliability as political agendas influenced what was preserved and what was suppressed.
This blog critically examines hadith narrations about the Prophet identifying hypocrites, analyzing their transmission chains and historical reliability. It explores their apparent contradiction with 9:101 and the issue with its transmission history.
The hadith—"The merciful are shown mercy by the Most Merciful..."—closely mirrors Shabbat 151b:14 in the Talmud. Given 7th/8th-century Arabia’s Jewish presence and oral transmission, it is highly plausible the hadith was adapted from this earlier Talmudic teaching.
This blog reveals how we uncovered Al-A'mash's deliberate practice of taking hadith directly from Hisham ibn Urwa while fabricating alternative chains of transmission. The bewitchment narrative serves as definitive proof of this systematic manipulation, exposing significant flaws in hadith transmission that traditional criticism missed.
The hadith appears to be a fabricated narrative designed to encourage Ayat al-Kursi recitation, leveraging a supernatural encounter to motivate spiritual practice through a potentially invented transmission chain.
There's a legal ruling provided by many Islamic Ulema, that women are prohibited from praying during menstruation. The Quran provides ZERO backing for this. We discover that the source of this satanic innovation was Hisham ibn Urwa - & he costed roughly the loss of 13,975 prayers PER Muslim woman.
Jewish fruit allegory traveled from Talmudic sources through Ibn Mas'ud's companion, before Qatada elevated it to prophetic status, fabricating chains of transmission and creating multiple attestations to legitimize the borrowed wisdom.
Evidence shows that the so-called canonical Quran transmitter, Abū ʿAmr, deliberately altered the divine Quranic recitation to "correct" what he perceived as grammatical mistakes. Al-Ṭabarī outright rejected readings that were later declared divine—effectively branding one of Islam’s most esteemed scholars a kāfir.
