Abstract

God Almighty being benignant and merciful sent Muhammad (P.B.U.H) to a nation with his holy book (Quran) so that people may not go astray & follow the right path .All the commands of Allah Almighty refer to and allude to the holy traditions of prophet Muhammad & these traditions are flawless and perfect .In this way the Muslims adhering to these traditions, can never lose right path of rectitude and righteousness. It is pitty that the Muslims today, have receded into oblivion the teachings of the holy Quran and traditions of the prophet. They rather seem to be more inelined and attracted towards the amassing of mundane wealth and riches and follow faithfully the foot prints of satan.The Muslim seem/appear to be acting against the teachings of Quran and Sunnah. They rather have adopted the vicious ways of decliners of traditions and follow the jews.The Muslim badly fail to distinguish between decliners of traditions and the followers. An attempt has been made in this research paper to prove and analyse that after the holy Quran , the holy traditions are the another genuine source to be referred to for the elucidation of the ordains of God.Beyond all doubts and criticisms, traditions are self-evident and manifest.
