The Ruling of the one who denies a Sahih Hadith

•

Al-Hakam said: I heard the Shaykh Abu Bakr Ahmad bin Ishaq bin Ayyub the faqih while he was discussing with a man so the shaykh said to him: Someone narrated (thana fulan (ie he mentioned a narration)). Then the man said: Let’s not talk about who narrated but about when. Then the shaykh said to him: Stand up, O Kafir! and from now on it is not allowed for you to enter my house. Then he turned to us and said: I have never forbidden anyone to enter my house except this man. (Dhamm Al-Kalam wa Ahlihi of Al-Harawi 2/71 nr.227)

The Qadi Abu Al-Husayn said: I read a text in the handwriting of my father stating: “I copied this from a manuscript of Abu Bakr bin Shaqlaa stating: “Abu Ishaq bin Shaqla said: “If someone is contradicting with the narrations that reliable men have transmitted from (other) reliable men who are connected without a break in the narration chain (isnad) and without anything badly mentioned about the transmitters (djarh), then if someone has the courage to reject it (ie the narration), then he attacks Islam and rejects Islam, because Islam and its rules are narrated to us as I have described. “

Al-Barbahari said: If you hear a man who you give the narrations but he does not want to accept them and wants proof from the Quran, then do not doubt the fact that this man is a heretic, so get up and leave him. (Sharh Al-Sunnah 119)

Al-Humaydi said:

“Wallahi, to fight against those who reject the hadith of the Messenger of Allah ï·º, is more beloved to me than to fight against the Turks.” (Al-Harawi – Dhamm Al-Kalam nr.228)

A man came to Al-Marisi (Bishr Al-Marisi was one of the leaders of the jahmiyya). He said: I speak with people of Ahl Al-Hadith and every time they mention a hadith of the prophet, I reject it. Then they say to me: “You are a kafir”. He said: “That’s right, if they mention a hadith of the prophet and you reject it, they say: “You are a kafir.”” He said: What should I do? He said: If they mention a hadith of the prophet, say: You speak the truth, and then you reject the hadith by giving an interpretation, so say: “There is some other interpretation behind it.” (reject the hadith in an indirect way and say: this hadith should not be interpreted literally). (Al-Sunnah of Abu Bakr bin Al-Khallal 5/105 number: 1734)
