"ISLAM" IS TAUGHT BY KIDS

 “It is reported that ‘Abdullāh Ibn Mas’ūd – Allah be pleased with him–said: The people will remain upon goodness as long as knowledge comes to them from the Compan­ions of Allāh’s Messenger – Allāh’s praise and peace be upon him, and from their seniors. But when knowledge comes to them from their mi­nors, that is when they will be destroyed.”

Keeping the above in mind, if we were to go by the Hadith literature, we come to realize that over 50% of the Sahih Hadith literature can be traced to just four individuals, Abu Hurairah, Anas ibn Malik, Abdullah ibn Umar and the Prophet's wife Aisha. If we dig a bit deeper into the same flawed literature, three out of these four prolific narrators of the Ahadith were actually teenagers leading up to the death of the Prophet of God. And one was a young man in his mid-twenties with a tarnished image.

So there you have it, since reports associated with these four are considered central to the manufactured doctrines of the sectarian scene, most of what is passed on as "Islam" is based on the recollection of three teenagers and one shady character.

Allow me to add out of the top 7 narrators with almost 17,000 reports, 5 were teenagers, 3 out of those 5 barely making the teen cut and the other two were in their mid-twenties. Imagine that !!!

Please feel free to verify everything I am claiming by doing your own research. Here is what I was able to dig up.

• Abu Hurayra – narrated 5,374 hadiths (born 603 died 681)
• Ibn `Umar – narrated 2,600 hadiths (born 610 died 693)
• Anas Ibn Malik – narrated 2,286 hadiths (born 612* died 709)
• `A’isha – narrated 2,210 hadiths (born 613 or 614** died 678)
• Ibn `Abbas – narrated 1,660 hadiths (born 619 or 620** died 687**)
• Jabir Ibn Abd Allah – narrated 1,540 hadiths (born 607 died 697)
• Abu Sa`id al-Khudri – narrated 1,170 hadiths (born 611** died 68**)

Notice the complete absence of the well known companions who were with the Prophet of God throughout his life. At the end of the day, the logic put forward is that the Haddith explains the Quran and “our” scholars explains the Hadith. Whenever discrepancy is found and there is more than enough for everybody, the scholars supposedly have reached  a consensus on it. But here is the thing, even among the Sunni scholars there is no agreed upon criteria for reaching this manufactured consensus.

There are five different criteria one each for the corresponding madhab;

Hanafi : Through public agreement of Islamic jurists Shafi : Through agreement of the entire community and public at large, Maliki: Through agreement amongst the residents of Medina only Hanbali: Through agreement and practice of Muhammad's Companions only (there is still no consensus on what constitute a sahaba) Usuli: Only the consensus of the ulama while the Prophet Pbuh was alive or Shia Imams

Go figure!!!

*It is difficult to nail down exact dates from the the conflicting reports. It is reported that he was born 10 Years before the Hijra in 622
