AOA,I have been carefully going through each of
yourpostings on wisdom. I am absolutely clear in
whatAllah means by 'wisdom' and trying to explain
toothers. Here, in this letter of yours, please read
theopening sentence qouting Quran,: "Those who
listenwell to My precepts and follow the best in them
(notSunnah & Hadeeth) are the ones whom Allah has
guided.They are the people of understanding".
(Surataz-Zumar: 18). The Quran Ayahs are really
selfexplanatory. To say the Quran needs cruthces
of'Hadeeth' to understand tantamount to saying
thatAllah sent Quran without ascertaining or knowing
theunderstanding capabilities of the people with
regardsto the holy Quran.Shariq.--- Asad Khan

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom
(i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue
with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone
astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.} (Holy
Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in
His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites
(men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I
am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if
Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of
camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever
calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who
follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa'ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
