    The document discusses different levels of authenticity for hadiths including Mutawaatir, Sahih, Hasan and Daif. It also explains the different types of Mutawaatir hadiths.

    There are three main levels - Mutawaatir, which is the highest level requiring a large number of narrators; Sahih; and Hasan/Daif. Mutawaatir hadiths do not need to meet further conditions due to the large number of narrators.

    For a hadith to be considered Sahih, it must meet all five conditions - an uninterrupted chain of narration, the uprightness of narrators, correctness of transmission, being free from irregularities, and being free from inherent defects.

    chain. MUTAWAATIR

    Lafthi MaNawi
    (Verbally) (Meaning)
    Mutawaatir The highest level of authenticity is a mutawaatir hadith. The condition of a
    mutawaatir hadith is distinguished by the large number of narrators reporting the same
    hadith in ever stage of the chain. Some scholars differ in the number of people required for
    a hadith to be mutawaatir. If this number is less than what the scholars require then the
    hadith is taken out of this group of Mutawaatar Hadith and placed down to a lower level
    which is Ahad hadith.

    Mutawaatir Lafth (verbally) Is the Sahabi saw or heard the Prophet (SAW), say a hadith or
    do something, then more than 7, or 10 or even 30 sahabi would convey the same hadith,
    and so on and so on.

    Mutawaatir Ma Nawi (meaning) The Prophet (SAW) did the same thing or said the same
    thing at different times or places. eg; Prophet (SAW) lifted his hands up for duaa, he did
    this several times in different places around different people.

    Example of a mutawaatir chian of hadith:


    Yehya ---- Ibrahim ---- Alqama ---- Umar ---- Habib Allah Mouhammad(SAW) HADITH

    300 50 70 30
    as you can see the number of narrators in the above chain is high in all stages.

    Sahih Hasan Daif

    Ahad hadith is narrated by a number of narrators less then the number required for
    mutawaatir this could be as little as one person narrating a hadith in a chain. Ahad hadith
    are categorized in three groups Sahih, Hasan, Daif.

    There are five conditions that distinguishes between the three levels of Ahad hadith

    These five conditions are as follows:-

    1. Ittasal al sanad a contiguous chain of narration


    2. Adalah uprightness
    3. Dabt correctness in transmission
    4. Free from Shuthuz free from any irregularity
    5. Free from Illah Qadeha free from an inherent piercing fault/defect

    When the hadith meets any of the criteria of the 5 conditions then the hadith is placed in its
    group. Of Sahih Hasan Daif.

    NOTE: A Sahih Hadith requires all conditions.

    NOTE: A Sahih Hadith could also be a Mutawaatir hadith as long it has the right number of
    narrators required.
