The Authenticity of Prophetic Hadith: A Pseudo-Problem

Overview: Abstract:The most central problem associated with Prophetic hadith has undoubtedly been their authenticity. This issue occupied Muslim specialists since the early classical period, and has continued to command the intense attention of western scholars since the middle of the last century. Gustav Well was one of the first, if not the first, to suggest, as early as 1848, that a substantial bulk of the hadith should be regarded as spurious. In 1861, Aloys Sprenger in effect argued the same point. But it was Ignaz Goldziher who inaugurated the critical study of the hadith's authenticity. Concerned with the early evolution of Islamic dogma and theology, Goldziher concluded that the great majority of the Prophetic hadith constitute evidence not of the Prophet's time to which they claim to belong, but rather of much later periods. Goldziher's critical approach to hadith was taken further, and indeed refined, by Joseph Schacht who insisted that insofar as legal hadith are concerned, they must be assumed fictitious until the contrary is proven.Since Schacht published his monumental work in 1950, scholarly discourse on this matter has proliferated. Three camps of scholars may be identified: one attempting to reconfirm his conclusions, and at times going beyond them; another endeavouring to refute them; and a third seeking to create a middle, perhaps synthesized, position between the first two. Among others, John Wansbrough, and Michael Cook belong to the first camp, while Nabia Abbott, F. Sezgin, M. Azami, Gregor Schoeler and Johann Fück belong to the second. Harald Motzki, D. Santillana, G.H. Juynboll, Fazlur Rahman and James Robson take the middle position.Despite significant differences in the methodologies and assumptions of these scholars, even within one and the same camp, and despite the fact that not all of them dealt with the problem of authenticity for its own sake they all share one fundamental assumption, namely, that the early and medieval Muslim scholars espoused the view that the Prophetic hadith literature is substantially genuine, and that despite the relatively large scale forgery that took place in the early period, the literature, at least as it came to be constituted in the six so-called canonical collections, has been successfully salvaged and finally proven to be authentic. It is only against this backdrop of traditional religious assumptions that the modern controversy can make any sense. For if the mainstream traditional scholarship was perceived not to have made claims for the authenticity of hadith there would be little, if anything, to argue against. In fact, if these were not the perceived traditional claims, there would have been no controversy to begin with, since the issue would in no way pose a problem.One would expect that before any ink had been spilt in commenting on the problem of authenticity, it would have been a fundamental requirement first to define the traditional Muslim position with regard to this specific question. If mainstream Muslim scholarship considered the hadith literature to be a true representation of the actual words of the Prophet, then by what epistemological yardstick did they measure the veracity of that literature? Furthermore, we should have asked - before Goldziher, Schacht, and their like began to expend so much scholarly energy in treating the matter - how the traditional Muslim criteria for judging the authenticity of the hadith tally with, or more importantly, epistemologically differ from our modern critical and scholarly criteria. In this short essay, I argue that the scholarly output concerned with authenticity since Weil raised the issue a century and a half ago is largely, if not totally, pointless.I have no new evidence to add to the massive repertoire of existing material, and nothing in my methodology here is unconventional. In fact, I shall - insofar as an author can minimize the divide between his sources and his reader - let the traditional position speak for itself. Once that position is clarified and defined, we will be able to conclude that traditional Muslim scholars have already solved the problem for us, and that we have needlessly expended much scholarly effort because we have not listened carefully to what these scholars have for so long been telling us.
