Ahadeeth and Sensitive Q&A

[5M1L3Y]

1. When you tell anyone Ahadeeth, do you have to say it in Arabic first? Because a lot of scholars in their lectures say them in Arabic first even when not many of the people listening to the lecture understand Arabic.

2. Don't any of the scholars check the Sensitive Q&A any more?

3. A video has been circulating around the "Muslim's" in school showing a man being tortured supposedly in Saudi Arabia because he is an adulterer and it shows his private parts being chained until it turned black and bruised, does anyone know if this really happened in Saudi Arabia? Is permission to cut a persons tongue off if they swear in Shari'ah law?

1. There is no oblogation as far as I am aware, though one shouldn't preface a translation with "The Messenger of Allah sallallah `alayh wa sallam said" since what you are giving is a translation of the meaning.

3. Why does Saudi Arabia matter? Is Islam defined by the rule in Saudi Arabia or is Saudi Arabia judged by Islam?

Assalamu Alaykum,

There is no obligation to recite the Hadith in Arabic, and there is also no problem in saying, that Rasulallah said.
The Sahaba narrated Hadith differently, phrasing it differently, leaving out and emphasised different parts etc. This can be seen through different narrations of the same Hadiths very often. Which means not all Sahaba, Tabi'in and Taba Tabi'in etc narrated the Hadiths verbatim. Yet they said, Rasulallah, sall'Allahu alayhi wa sallam, said. The most important thing was to convey the meaning, which you do by a reliable translation.

As for Sa'udi, they do not always rule according to Islam, and the acts of certain people working for the goverment even less.

wassalam

Reason they do that is probably because when you memorize them, you do it in 'Arabic so when you recite them in English, you're translating on the fly.

I doubt that Saudi would punish a man like that for nothing more than adultery. You'll want to find some evidence that the video actually took place in Saudi and the crime really was adultery and not some sort of political dissidence.
