Quote: I was a little put off when I first converted because this was the criterea and it seemed a little arbitrary. But the more I get to know Islam the more I come to realize that a person cannot fake the type of character one develops when one is walking unshakenly along the straight path. Insha'Allah I will become like this one day. I am going to shut up now.

Nope don't shut up, keep going. How you've explained the Hadith is perfect, like my understanding as well. At first i didn't know to what degree what is fabricated and why we even listen to Hadith that scholars say are weak. But a brother was telling me about a complete course available to study in just <b>the Science of Hadith alone!</b> It is Allhumdullilah very in depth and very rigorous. Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) would not have seen events play out any other way regarding this, this is why if a Hadith is said to be authentic, i trust in Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) .
