In contradistinction with Khabar and Athar, the words Hadith and Sunnah are widely popular, so much so, that a mere mention of any of these two words, inevitably brings to mind the words, acts and tacit approvals of Allah’s messenger. (All these words have already been mentioned under the technical terms employed by Hadith scholars). All these three categories of Ahadith are variously known as (1) Khabar, (2) Athar, (3) Hadith and (4) Sunnah. The latter refers to acts done in his presence but he did not disapprove of them, his silence indicating his approval. The term Hadith applies to the words and acts of Allah’s Messenger as well as his tacit approvals called Taqrir. Hadith is next only to Quran as a source of Islamic laws and proofs.
