Hadith classification is a systematic method used by Islamic scholars to evaluate and categorize the sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad based on their authenticity and reliability. This process involves examining the chain of narrators and the content to determine if a Hadith is Sahih (authentic), Hasan (good), Da'if (weak), or fabricated.

Sahih refers to a classification of Hadith, the sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad, that are deemed authentic and reliable based on a rigorous evaluation of their chain of transmission and content. This classification is crucial for Islamic jurisprudence and theology, as it determines the credibility and applicability of the Hadith in guiding Muslim practices and beliefs.

Sahih

Hasan is a name that many people have, and it can be found in different cultures around the world. It is important because it sometimes means 'good' or 'handsome', and people like to give names that have nice meanings.

Hasan

Da'if

Fabricated Hadith refers to sayings falsely attributed to the Prophet Muhammad that were invented for various reasons, such as political gain, personal benefit, or to support a particular sectarian view. Distinguishing authentic Hadith from fabricated ones is crucial for Islamic scholarship, as it impacts religious practices and beliefs.
