Salaam Alaikum,
I have been reading and watching various discussions and debates between Muslims, those who accept only the Quran as authoritative, and those who believe that to be a Muslim one must accept along with the Quran, the teachings and practices of Muhammad which are found in sahih hadiths.
I am curious what do Muslims on this forum think about this. I know the Quran is an integral part of Islam, but what about the hadiths? Can one reject them and still remain a Muslim? Or does accepting them mean that one is adding to the Quran, and becomes an innovator, as the Quranist Muslims claim?
Curious to hear people's thoughts on this.
