Hadith Qudsi

Hadith Qudsi

Hadith Qudsi (or Sacred Hadith) are a sub-category of hadith, which are sayings of Muhammad. Muslims regard the "Hadith Qudsi" as the words of God (Arabic:Allah), repeated by Muhammad and recorded on the condition of an "isnad" (chain of verification by witness(es) who heard Muhammad say the hadith). At first, there seems to be no reason for distinguishing Qur'anic verses from the verses in the Hadith Qudsi, as both are regarded as directly inspired from God. However, according to as-Sayyid ash-Sharif al-Jurjani, the Hadith Qudsi differ from the Qur'an in that the former were revealed in a dream or through revelation and are "expressed in Muhammad's words", whereas the latter are the "direct words of God".

Hence, Hadith Qudsi rank as a source of Islamic knowledge below the Qur'an but above all other hadiths. A well-known text among Muslims is the "40 Hadith Qudsi".

An example of a Hadith Qudsi is:

On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (radi Allahu 'anhu), who said that the Messenger of God said:

:"When God decreed the Creation He pledged Himself by writing in His book which is laid down with Him: My mercy prevails over my wrath"."

(Related by Muslim, and by al-Bukhari, an-Nasa'i and Ibn Majah)
