I believe in those hadith which are not contradictory to Quran, reason, common sense and mainly concerned with faith, worship and morality (religion) not Arab culture, dress, arts, politics, society, economy etc.
I consider the Prophet Muhammad to be a great personality, an Arab leader and a successful person. As a prophet I believe him totally but as a person or leader I may disagree with him. Or the words attributed to him are false.
In this thread I would like to seek views and comments of the dear friends on some hadith which if they believe the hadith then may explain how can they defend them and if they do not believe in such hadith to be a true one then may declare that they consider it a false hadith in spite of the fact that the same may be mentioned in the so called sihahe sitta(authentic 6 books of the hadith) or any other book where the hadith was termed as authentic.
I may satrt from some of the following hadith for comments
Muhammad and torture, is it recommended to drink urine?
Bukhari, Volume 4 Number 261:
'Eight men of the tribe of 'Ukil came to the Prophet and then they found the climate of Medina unsuitable for them. So, they said, 'O Allah's Apostle! Provide us with some milk.' Allah's Apostle said, 'I recommend that you should join the herd of camels.' So they went and drank the urine and the milk of the camels (as a medicine) till they became healthy and fat. Then they killed the shepherd and drove away the camels, and they became unbelievers after they were Muslims. When the Prophet was informed by a shouter for help, he sent some men in their pursuit, and before the sun rose high, they were brought, and he had their hands and feet cut off. Then he ordered for nails which were heated and passed over their eyes, and whey were left in the Harra (i.e. rocky land in Medina). They asked for water, and nobody provided them with water till they died.'
