Adage: Muhammad's teaching to Mankind

[adage]

Assalamu alaykum,

Adage Ltd. is a non-profit translation and education company registered in the United Kingdom. Adage is dedicated to produce a complete database of ahâdîth translated into English and has the capacity to incorporate several additional languages in the future, if God wills. The translated ahâdîth will be available online on a regular basis as well as published when work on the English phase is completed. For more information about this project, kindly visit our website: www.adageonline.net
The available translations of ahâdîth up till now, be that online or published, are either imprecise or partial at best. Contrastingly, and due to the significance of presenting ahâdîth in the way suitable to the noble figure of Prophet Muhammad, may God’s peace and blessings be upon him, we seek to provide the entire English translations of the following books:
1. Sahîh al-Bukhâriy
2. Sahîh Muslim
3. Sunan Abî-Dawud
4. Sunan at-Tirmithiy
5. Sunan an-Nasâ'iy
6. Sunan Ibn-Mâjah
7. Muwatta' Mâlik
We made sure that the translation of each hadîth is displayed beside its Arabic version, along with its full tahqîq (reference); i.e. its degree of authenticity, reporter, book (chapter), number and narrator.
Due to its significance and scope, the planning phase for this long-term project and intricate task lasted over 18 months. Currently, the accreditation of this project is pending while actual work has already started with the contribution and blessings of several hadîth and Islamic scholars.
Our team comprises a selection of competent volunteers devoted to this honourable cause, all of whom seek no financial benefit. We are solely dedicated in this project to spreading the words of our beloved Prophet (may God’s peace and blessings be upon him). Furthermore, this project aims to make a humble contribution to the introduction of Islamic teachings to all through him that represents Islâm best.
We would like to stress that we do not promote or affiliate with any organization.
We would be very grateful if you could spare some time to help us in this endeavor. Your contribution can be in the form you find convenient and this flexibility gives you the freedom to choose. Any contribution as small as pointing in someone's direction could make a difference.

Sister, first of all welcome to our forum and as per the forum rules please mention your location in your profile.

While visiting the adage forum I came across the Adage's campaign against fabricated ahadith. I would like to know how do you at adage consider the Hadith-e-Noor in which Hazrat Jaabir (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu) narrated of having asked our Beloved Prophet Sayyidinah Muhammad (Sallal Laahu Ta'ala Alayhi Wa Sallam) about the first thing that Allah (Subhaanahu Wa Ta'ala) created and our Beloved Prophet Sayyidinah Muhammad (Sallal Laahu Ta'ala Alayhi Wa Sallam) replied that it was His Noor (Noor e Muhammadi-Sallal Laahu Ta'ala Alayhi Wa Sallam) that Allah (Subhaanahu Wa Ta'ala) created first.

As salam alaikom dear brother Saalik,

First of all, I am really so sorry for my so late reply, I did not get a notification for your reply and that is why I did not get the chance to reply you immediately.

Thank you so much for your welcome. I really did like the forum, Ma sha Allah. And, I will mention my location, In sha Allah.

About your question, Our organization is not the one who decide if the Hadith is fabricated or not. We get the authentication and the verdit of the Ahadith from the Fatwas of other older Sheikhs. So, the organization does not decide or consider the Ahadith by itself. You will find the name of the Sheikh at the bottom of every fabricated hadith we mention.
Hope I helped with this reply and please do not hesitate to ask about any other thing!

Jazak Allah khair,
Salam.

Jazaak Allah Khayaran for updating your profile Sister and also for pointing out who is responsible to declare the Ahadith as fabricated. We don't deny that there are fabricated Ahadith but we must be careful about who is declaring them as fabricated.

The Shaykh whom you pointed is influenced by the heretic al albani who committed many blunders in the field of Hadith and he's also associated with Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia (the kingdom of wahhabism)

There's no guaranty that whatever he's declaring as fabricated is really fabricated, there's no guaranty that he's not committing the same blunders as the heretic al albani did.


Please have a look about the heretic al albani:

The sunnah mentions to the way the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) lived his life, his sayings and teachings. We learn this through the hadith which is a record of these sayings and teachings. Muslims try to implement the sunnah or ways of the prophet into our lives.
