The hadith "Seek Knowledge even if you have to go as far as china" is fabricated and does not exist. The actual hadith is:
The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
said: ‘Seeking knowledge is obligatory upon every Muslim.’” (220.
Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Sunan Ibn Maajah)
I can confirm this from our local ...

Both the men were mahrams of Ayesha. Apparently the relationship of the narrator is not obvious so I'll explain that: Abu Salama was fostered by Umm Kulthum bint Abu Bakr, who was the sister of Ayesha. Hence Ayesha was his foster aunt:
لأنها خالة أبي سلمة من الرضاع أرضعته أختها أم كلثوم
— Fath al Bari
وأرضعته أم كلثوم ، فعائشة خالته من الرضاعة
— Abu Salma's ...

1.There are several conditions that must be satisfied without which one can not receive the punishment of stoning:
Four just male must have witnessed the sin(excuse my language, I mean the exact act of penetrating) with their own eyes. So quoting the testimonies of four just male is not acceptable.
Their testimonies have to be exactly the same. If one of ...

The simplest answer is that what the Prophet (saws) may be describing is not something that we can observe in the dimensions that we live in. There are plenty of phenomena that the Qur'an and the Prophet (saws) talk about that are more "unscientific" than this. Take, for example, the hadith about sins causing black spots on our heart. Or the verse 83:14 in ...

It doesn't mean what you mentioned, because the word 'كُلُّ رَايَةٍ' 'Each Flag' doesn't mean the governments but it means each person who claim that he is 'The Qaim' and some people follows him, while he is a liar and he's not the real 'The Qaim’...
So this Hadith tells that those people 'the liars' are tyrants and they are defying Allah, and people who ...

The reconciliation is that one is a general ruling (عموم), while the other is about a specific case (خصوص), i.e. an exception.
A true contradiction would have existed if:
the hadith too had a generic scope, e.g if it said "kill every non-muslim" OR
the verse too had a specific scope, and the specified subject was the same group e.g. if it said &...

Since hazrat Fatima is very eminent and just few achieve that understanding,Imam Sadiq (A.S.) interpreting this verse to hazrat Fatima and said: "Who knows Fatima the way it should,then could understand Laylatul Qadr.
Fatima is Laylatul Qadr of ahlul bayt and surat al-Qadr represent magnitude of her and is interpreted to hazrat Fatima through this reasons:

First let's re-quote the Hadith:
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَطَاءٌ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَنْ أَكَلَ مِنْ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ ـ يُرِيدُ الثُّومَ ـ فَلاَ يَغْشَانَا فِي مَسَاجِدِنَا ". ...

This may not be the ideal answer but it's a little too much to put in a comment so if someone can better it, please do so.
Note these names:
The best man after the noble prophet (S) was called "Abu Bakr"
The popular sahaabah who was like the shadow of the prophet (s) was called "Abu Huraira" - father of cats
Uthmaan Bin Affaan , the 3rd Khaleefah was ...

As far as I have researched these are words of Thabit b. Qays b. Shammas not that of the Prophet (PBUH). The Arabic text is available here and the English translation here:
ومن كفر جاهدناه في الله أبدا وكان قتله علينا يسيرا
as for the one who disbelieves, we will fight him forever in the cause of God and killing him is a small matter to us
The sentence was ...

You are referring to a special version of this sahih hadith (al-Bukahri, and a longer Version for example in Muslim) on the supplication/curse of an oppressed دعوة المظلوم. Note the addition of "even if he is a disbeliever" doesn't have enough support to be qualifeid as sahih, so it is in best case considered as a "hassan" hadith.
I think ...

The hadith of the farewell pilgrimage is strong and well known, it is also in agreement with the Quran:
يا أيها الناس إنا خلقناكم من ذكر وأنثى وجعلناكم شعوبا وقبائل لتعارفوا إن أكرمكم عند الله أتقاكم
O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the ...

I think it is worth explaining this long quote of abu Dawod in a bit more details:
abu Dawod first quotes a hadith on the authority of ibn 'Umar, which has a high level of trust as it was reported via trustworthy narrators: al-Qa'anabi (student of imam Malik and one of the narrators of al-Muwatta' which's copy still exists)-> imam Malik-> ibn Shihab ...

As for the part:
"You will find a people who claim to have totally given themselves to Allah.
Abu Bakr here is referring to monks etc.: people who left the material life with the -pretended- intention to focus on the worship of Allah. This is due to the fact that they will and are not involved in the fight (even if their worship might not be of God only)...

No, there is no contradiction. A verb may be used in its initial meanings as well as final/extreme. The context/situation dictates the meaning in which it is used. This is a general style of Arabic language.
For example see An-Nisa 4:136
O you who believe! believe in Allah and His Apostle and the Book which
He has revealed to His Apostle and the Book ...

No, what you said isn't true, this narration is not related to the establishment of a government, but rather is meant a call or uprising.
Invite has two types:
Call to the void and non-religious purposes which is related to self (nafs) and is doomed.
Call to remove void and for right purposes which is approved by Imams.
In this narrative, that flags have ...

I will answer this question disregarding whatever the translation says.
Simply, Allah(cc) can not be perceived in a wordly way, as us humans do with senses. As such it is not possible to give him a form or physical representation, because the forms which we understand rely on our senses. In the same way the cloths are stuff which we use for the forms which ...

The prophet (peace be upon him) didn't add anything to the verse. It was re-revealed and the previous version of the verse was abrogated. Allah says in the Qur'an:
مَا نَنسَخْ مِنْ آيَةٍ أَوْ نُنسِهَا نَأْتِ بِخَيْرٍ مِّنْهَا أَوْ
مِثْلِهَا ۗ أَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّ اللَّـهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
Whatever communications We abrogate or cause to be ...

One Narration/Hadith and different Additions
First of all the Hadith itself ended with "Allah's Apostle forbade the Shighar." the rest of it is more or less ijtihad as it's based on a saying of the tabi'i Nafi' mawla Abdullah ibn 'Omar (May Allah be pleased with them).
And after that came some fiqh terms such as "the marriage is valid but its condition is ...

I'm sure i saw a Question about this hadith (or maybe an answer including it) here before.
But the answer is simple this is a Narration from Sahih al Bukhari.
And Abu Huraira (May Allah be pleased with him) didn't change anything (and Allah knows best) but when you read the statement(s) you find out it has two separated parts.
One part where Abu Huraira (...

While Islam is infamous in the media for suicide bombings, the Qur'an strongly condemns both murder and suicide.
But whoever kills a believer intentionally - his recompense is Hell, wherein he will abide eternally, and Allah has become angry with him and has cursed him and has prepared for him a great punishment. -- Qur'an 4:93
Because of that, We decreed ...

The transliteration of your own Quran quote shows that your assumption is wrong "bikhumurihinna" (2nd line)! The Quran uses the plural of khimar خِمَار (khumur خُمُر) as it addresses a plural (women). Here the translator for some reasons used the singular instead, which doesn't make sense, but as he uses the Arabic word in an English text to emphasize a ...

Homosexual intercourse is classed as Zina according to the Shafis and Hanafis1, and given the same Hadd as Zina, i.e lashes for the unmarried and Rajm (stoning to death) for the married.
Hence their execution comes under زَنَى بَعْدَ إِحْصَانٍ (Zina after being married) which the two hadith you quoted qualify as a valid cause for the death penalty.
From ...

Whether your deeds are accepted now, or were ever accepted before, or will remain accepted till you die is a question that Allah, and only Allah knows. No human can judge on the specificity of your situation based on their own knowledge alone.
Having said that, the hadith you are referring to is a hadith that is narrated in Sunan Ibn Mājah as a good (hassan) ...

In both ahadith from Jami' at-Tirmdihi al-Mobarakfori or Abdurrahmaan ibn Abdarrahim Mubarakpuri (died 1953) محمد بن عبد الرحمن بن عبد الرحيم المباركفوري in his tohfat al-Ahodi تحفة الأحوذي says that the meaning is that they are like captives, as men have "control over them"

The hadith you quoted has another version in Al-Tabarani's Al-Mu'jam Al-Awṣat, hadith 7647, starting with "Whoever gets married, ..." (also narrated through Anas ibn Mālik). The condition set forth is being married. When the condition of marriage is fulfilled, one may have fulfilled half of one's religion. Multiple marriages, concurrent or in ...

A hadith in Sahih Bukhari is not going to flatly contradict the Qur'an (in this case Qur'an 2:222 ...keep away from wives during menstruation...): the narrators of these ahadith and the author Muhammad al-Bukhari were devout Muslims who were aware of the contents of the Qur'an. (Instead the Book of Menstrual Periods gives several ahadith which describe ...

To answer your first question, I’d recommend reading this article
Did the Prophet (pbuh) maintain his ties with his uncle?
Despite his enmity, crimes and tyranny against the Prophet (pbuh) and the Muslims are undeniable, but in response, the answer is no because of two reasons:
Allah (SWT) says: “It is not fitting, for the prophet and those who
believe, ...
