Investigations on Origin of Hadeeth Collectors
By Irshad Mahmood – Director, Siraat-al-Mustaqeem Dawah Centre
Three
out of
Four Khalifa were martyred / killed by Hypocrites. Ummah is
widely divided and still not ready to research / investigation on what
happened to this Ummah and how it got deviated and are still being
wiped out one after another for centuries. There is no doubt on the
Quraan and it is fully protected by Allah, BUT
We MUST have to investigate on everything from the beginning of the birth of Prophet Muhammad (Peace-Be-Upon-Him).
Here I would like to highlight on Origin of Hadeeth Collectors
(Muhaddith). Not a single Muhaddith were born or ever lived in Makkah
or Madina of Hijaz (present day Saudi Arabia).
Hypocrites are like Cancers among Muslims and they MUST need to be exposed. We MUST need to verify all Hadeeth and accept those Hadeeth which are truly according to the Quraan.

Conclusion: Traveling widely throughout the Abbasid Caliphate and collecting
600,000 Hadeeth in
20 years NON stop, around
30,000 hadith per year,
2,500 hadith per month,
83
hadith per day which includes weekends was humanly impossible, since
they didn't have any internets etc., nor have space crafts to travel
and don't have even Buraq to travel throughout the Abbasi Caliphate and
learned from
1000 scholars. When disbelievers of ancient Persian Empire saw
huge number of Persians reverting to Islaam, they themselves joined Muslims
SECRETLY and
later succeeded in deviating vast majority of Muslims from the Quraan by bombarding with many fabricated Hadeeth. Today you see majority of Muslims are not practicing the Quraan in spirit and are facing consequences.
