Jul 23, 2012 at 5:50 comment added Abdullah @Affan Regarding your penultimate comment, No. The last part of your comment is your derivation from Shafi'i opinion. Let me find more Shafi'i opinion regarding Hadith, Insha Allah. Hadith does more that explaining Qur'an. One of its function is explaining Qur'an of course.
Jul 23, 2012 at 5:48 comment added Abdullah @Affan I think you are applying ayah with your own interpretation. That ayah doesn't mention men alone firstly. And women are allowed to wear Gold. Extravagance is extravagance be it Gold or not.
Jul 23, 2012 at 5:44 comment added a_fan @Ershad Thanks for bringing up the example of Gold. It will help me clarify my question further. To me the prohibition of Gold for men is an application of the principle mentioned in 17:26-27 i.e. And give his due to the near of kin, as well as to the needy and the wayfarer, but do not squander [thy substance] senselessly. Behold, the squanderers are, indeed, of the ilk of the satans – inasmuch as Satan has indeed proved most ungrateful to his Sustainer.
Jul 23, 2012 at 5:41 comment added a_fan @Ershad The above quotation of Shafi'i is a single opinion. The relationship between the two parts is that of a principle and a concrete rule derived from it. What he is saying is: sunnah should only be used to explain the Quran (principle), therefore sunnah contradicting the Qur'an were unacceptable (rule). What I am saying is: the principle has another implication that every hadith (sunnah) must be rooted in Quran otherwise it can't explain. Right?

Jul 21, 2012 at 10:51 comment added Abdullah @Affan One of the things that Sunnah does is explain Qur'an. I am keeping in perspective Imam Shafi'i's opinion. What I understand is you ignore the first part of his opinion. For example, can you bring me one ayah from Qur'an that prohibits wearing Gold for men? As long as Sunnah doesn't contradict the Qur'an it is fine. The issue of Gold is not mentioned in Qur'an. However, Sunnah makes additional prohibition. So, Sunnah is what Allah commanded through the messenger.

Jul 21, 2012 at 10:28 comment added a_fan @Ershad Yes, the Hadith of Ibn Abbas. Let me mention it in the question as well. And no, my question is not about contradiction at all. I'm simply asking about the ayat, if any, that is basis of the prophetic saying. Please keep in perspective the opinion of Shafi'i I highlighted above. Thanks!
Jul 21, 2012 at 10:05 comment added ashes999 -1 it's not really clear what you're asking here.
Jul 21, 2012 at 9:47 comment added Abdullah Which hadeeth? Hadeeth of Ibn Abbaas (radiallahu anhu)? And if that is the hadeeth, you might want to mention which verse of Qur'an it contradicts.
