In this controversial critical study, Ram Swarup examines the traditional Muslim collections of hadith (the sayings and actions attributed to the Prophet Muhammad), especially work like Sahih Muslim, and questions their authenticity and authority as a source of Islamic law and moral guidance. The book presents selected translations of hadith alongside critical commentary, inviting readers to reconsider the role of hadith literature in shaping Islamic belief and practice.
