Sacred Hadith) is a sub-category of hadith which are sayings of prophet Muhammad (SAWW). Muslims regard the Hadith Qudsi as the words of God, repeated by prophet Muhammad (SAW) and recorded on the condition of a sanad (document). *OR*

Hadith Qudsi is what was said by the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), but it’s meaning was from Allah, or what God sent to him by inspiration or a dream, so Prophet Mohammad said it in his own words but with the same meaning.

 

4.(b) Muhammad ibn Ismail al-Bukhari al-Jufi was born after the Jumu’ah prayer on Friday, 21 July 810 (13 Shawwal 194 AH) in the city of Bukhara in Transoxiana (in present-day Uzbekistan).

 

During his infancy, Imam al-Bukhari (RH) had weak eyesight that manifested into full-blown blindness. Desperate for her son, his mother made excessive, sincere, and constant dua for her son. This period extended for a lengthy two to three years. One night, Imam al-Bukhari’s mother received the glad tidings of Ibrahim (AS) in a dream, who said that Allah (SWT) had granted Imam al-Bukhari vision because of her dua. The eyesight was not even restored at a lesser degree, but at full strength. It is reported that Imam al-Bukhari (RH) would write books without a candle but only from the light of the moon.

 

He memorized the Holy Qur’an at the age of 9. Then began to learn Hadith from scholars of his region. At the age of 16, he traveled to Makkah and stayed there for 16 years collecting Hadiths. He visited Egypt and Syria twice, Basra four times, spent many years in Hijaz and went to Kufa and Baghdad many times. It is said that he learned about 600,000 Hadith from more than 1,000 scholars.

 

There is one remarkable incident that took place in Baghdad when Imam Bukhari (RH) visited the place. The people having heard of his many accomplishments, and the attributes which were issued to him, decided to test him so as to make him prove himself to them. In order to do that they chose one hundred different Hadiths and changing the testimonials and the text of the Hadiths. The Hadiths were recited by ten people to Imam Bukhari (RH). When the Hadiths were recited, Imam Bukhari (RH) replied to all in one manner, “Not to my knowledge.”

 

However, after the completion of all the Hadiths, he repeated each text and testimonial which had been changed followed by the correct text and testimonial.

5.(bi) Angels are a part of the world of the “Unseen” which we cannot comprehend. Allah has told us about them in many places in the Quran and via His Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).

Angels are a form of spiritual beings created by Allah to perform various assigned duties. There are numerous angels. They are bound to obey the commands of Allah. Unlike human beings, they have not been given the choice to do either right or wrong.

In the Holy Qur’an, Angels are frequently referred to as malak and rasool which, in Arabic language, means power and messenger, respectively. These literal meanings indicate the nature of various duties of the Angels.

Angels do not possess any fixed material form. They cannot be seen with our physical eyes due to our limited faculties. But when they appear to human beings (e.g. in a spiritual vision), they appear in such forms which are imaginable by us.
