Detailed explanation-1: -Hadith, Arabic Ḥadīth (“News” or “Story”), corpus of the sayings or traditions of the Prophet Muhammad, revered by Muslims as a major source of religious law and moral guidance. It comprises many reports of varying length and authenticity. The individual reports are also called hadith (plural: hadiths).
Detailed explanation-2: -Prophet Muhammad (SallAllahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said: “Have taqwa (fear) of Allah wherever you may be, and follow up a bad deed with a good deed which will wipe it out, and behave well towards the people.”
Detailed explanation-3: -Thus in addition to the Qur’an, which is the word of God, Muslims collected the sayings of Muhammad and called them Hadith. Together with the Qur’an, the Prophet’s sayings are his most important legacy and inheritance. The story of Muhammad and his career naturally became the most important story in Islam.
Detailed explanation-4: -The two major aspects of a hadith are the text of the report (the matn), which contains the actual narrative, and the chain of narrators (the isnad), which documents the route by which the report has been transmitted.
