- Title
THE IMPACT OF THE QUR'ĀN ON THE STYLE OF ḤANDῙTH.
- Authors
Shaikh, Khalid Mahmood
- Abstract
According to Islamic sources revelation (wa╒y) from Allah the Almighty to the Prophet (peace be on him) was of two types. The revelation (wa╒y) of the Qur’┐n was conveyed through the recitation of an ┐yah, a part of an ┐yah or a set of ┐y┐t or a s┴rah by the angel Jibr┘l each time he descended. The other form of revelation (wa╒y) was in the form of inspiration of meanings in the mind of the Prophet (peace be on him) or conversations of the angel Jibr┘l with him. In either case, the Prophet (peace be on him) used to convey this second form of revelation (wa╒y) in his own wordings or through his actions or through his tacit approvals. There is a marked difference between the style of theQur’┐n, a divinely composed diction, and that of a╒┐d┘th containing the sayings of the Prophet (peace be on him), a diction composed by a human Messenger. However, given to the fact that the Prophet (peace be on him) had no human teacher rather he was taught by Allah Himself, a deep imprint of the Qur’┐n upon the ideas, languageand wording of the sayings of the Prophet (peace be on him) is quite clear, visible and easily traceable in its style both from syntax and semantics point of views. This article explores the ┐y┐t of the Qur’┐n and collections of ╓ad┘th to presents a few examples for the purpose of comparison and analysis.
