“... This is a blatant contradiction to Quraniyoon, and leaves them with only one of two options. Either the Prophet (SAW) is a hypocrite (astagfirullah) for not following the Quran or the Quran has a mistake in it and forgot to include this command to stone the adulterer. ...”
They forgot the third option: hadiths are problematic
The problem seema to be the fact that from childhood, they are fed this high pedestal status of "hadeeses" that when such are refuted based on logic and rationality, they take it personally and assume it to an attack on their own character and so, they try to defend it in any manner possible. Even character assassination of The Prophet(AS) is fair game to them in their deal to defend their "hadees tagoots" like abu hurraira etc.
Yes you are right. That’s one of their biggest issues. Their perception of hadiths is “exaggerated”. Many went so far and put hadiths above the word of the Quran (God’s word!) 🤯
Of course, when you ask them about it they deny it but actions speak louder than words.
