Hadith are reports attributed to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) describing what he said, what he did, and what happened in his presence. These reports have set a precedent for the Islamic tradition, but some still wonder whether the reports ultimately help the tradition or complicate it unnecessarily. Should we follow the Quran alone and put aside all hadith?

In the view of Dr. Shabir Ally, while the Quran gives us the basic outline of Islam’s moral and belief system, the more complex applications of its message often come to us from the hadith. While we should not hesitate to evaluate the content of hadith, we must recognize their value for rationally understanding the context from which Islam began and how to apply it practically in daily life.
