Navaid Aziz – Preservation of the Hadith in Islam

About this lecture

In this episode of The Deen Show, host Eddie sits down with Sheikh Navaid Aziz — a graduate of the Islamic University of Medina and instructor with Al-Maghrib Institute — to discuss the Hadith: what they are, their authority alongside the Quran, and how they were preserved with extraordinary rigor over 1,400 years. Sheikh Navaid walks through the five conditions for an authentic Hadith, the science of narrator criticism, and the extraordinary memory and piety of scholars like Imam al-Bukhari, leaving viewers with a compelling case for the reliability of the Prophetic tradition. The episode also covers the attributes of Allah, the miraculous nature of the Quran, and closes with practical spiritual advice drawn from the structure of Sahih al-Bukhari itself.
