Why learn hadith?
We learn the Prophet’s Sunnah ﷺ to understand our religion and act well. Learning should also teach humility and mercy.
Quran 4:80 connects obedience to the Messenger with obedience to Allah. The Sunnah is authoritative and explains the Quran.
Checking what is authentically attributed to the Prophet protects that authority. A beautiful quotation on an image is not enough to establish its attribution.
