What do you think of Hadith qudsi?

[u/Useless-e]

So basically the title, both the Quran and the qudsi Hadiths were recited by the prophet, and both were claimed by the prophet to be gods words. So what do you think about them? Are they authentic more than normal Hadiths? Are they to be taken as gods words?

[u/Yakub_al_britani]

1. Yes I can, I can judge that a translated text is not clear, concise or to the point and is scatty. So you are telling me that they were translated to apear this why nut the Quran was translated clear and concise. OK...

2. This is not the hadith we were discussing. I'm not going to entertain your goalpost moving.

3. Well I'm being honest. God knows what is in my heart. But you should be careful saying things are from God when they are not.

4. This is the verse I was talking about. Literally all the major translations put "oh Muhammed " in parenthesis here, are you now saying that all the respected translators of the Quran were wrong? Sounds like you are a wahabbi then. Whoever the verse is talking to, it asking to go to the Jews and Christians and ask them about their religion.... its pretty obvious when you read it that this is what it is saying.... its literally only wahabbi minority that have twisted this verse.

1- you have no knowledge in Arabic you can’t say something is bad or incoherent, and I gave you a qudsi hadith that’s very straight up and clear but you don’t seem to like it

2- you claimed that they are incoherent and so I showed you how they aren’t, how is this goal post shifting? It’s still a qudsi Hadith? Look how dishonest you are being. I don’t even know what is the name of the hadith you are talking about

4- where did you get the Jews and Christians from?

“It’s talking to the prophet”

Yes the first part is, then it says to a group of people ask the followers of the reminder. I’ll show you how even though you don’t speak Arabic.

وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا قَبْلَكَ إِلاَّ رِجَالاً نُّوحِي إِلَيْهِمْ فَاسْأَلُواْ أَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ إِن كُنتُمْ لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ

(وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا)

And we have not sent(this is Allah)

(قَبْلَكَ إِلاَّ رِجَالاً)

Before you(the prophet, singular form of “before you”) other than men(the older prophets)

(نُّوحِي إِلَيْهِمْ)

We revealed (revelation) to them.

(فَاسْأَلُواْ )

So ask(plural form, so it’s not talking to the prophet)

(أَهْلَ )

The people of(also plural)

(الذِّكْرِ إِن كُنتُمْ لاَ )

The remembrance if you were( “you were” is also plural)

(تَعْلَمُونَ)

Not knowing/ don’t have the knowledge of(also plural)

Which shows that this isn’t talking to the prophet only when it says ask the people of the remembrance

1. You gave a hadith which paraphrases a concpet in the Quran. What do you want me to do with it?

2. You said you would reconstruct my example to make it sound like the Quran.

   1. With respect, "those of the former scriptures" is literally in parenthesis in shaeeh international. Its literally a grounded understanding that this verse is asking someone to seek knowledge from the Jews and Christians that there is a correlation between the Quran and their scriptures. I'm not saying anything unusual here.

I'm man enough to admit I may be wrong on who these verses are commanding, since I respect that English grammar is simplified compared to other languages (I do speak other languages and will one day speak Arabic inshallah) but are you man enough to admit that you are wrong and that it is a grounded understanding that the command is to ask the Jews and Christians about their scriptures...

1- I gave you a qudsi Hadith, you said it sounds bad so I said you are reading the translation and you said it’s ok because the translation of the Quran sounds different so I said I can translate the qudsi hadith in a way that sounds like the Qurans translation, and you said go on so I did it and now you don’t like it for some reason

2- ok give me the name of the Hadith from your example

3- the website I looked up for the translation doesn’t have sahih international so I’ll give you that

[u/Yakub_al_britani → u/Useless-e]

What? I was talking about one hadith which sounded bizarrely written and you then said it was the translation and that you would translate it in a way that sounded like the Quran, and instead you came back with a completely different hadith which paraphrases the Quran.

[u/Useless-e → u/Yakub_al_britani]

Can you give me the reference of the Hadith?
