It is reported that Nasiruddin Al-Baani has removed over five thousand (5000) Ahadith from various authentic books of Ahadith claiming them to be concocted and weak. We investigated this issue based on the published information and found out the following appalling facts. We would like to share these facts with our readers who will judge if what Al-Bani did was an academic exercise or a big conspiracy against Islam.
Al-Bani removed 83 chapters and 329 Ahadith from one single Hadith book, Adab Al-Mufred, written by Imam Bukhari. He did the same thing with many other important Ahadith books.
Imam Bukhari and his works are accepted by entire Muslim Umma as most authentic, after Quran. He is the undisputed Imam in Hadith Narration. Can any Muslim in the world believe that Imam Bukhari will write 83 spurious and concocted Hadith Chapters in his book? To declare Imam Bukhari to have included 83 Chapters of wrong Ahadith means, Al-Bani has branded Imam Bukhari as totally untrustworthy and unworthy to be a Hadith scholar, let alone be an Imam of Hadith (استغفر اللہ).
Al-Bani declared Imam Bukhari as ‘Mushrik’ (Nauzubillahi) for translating ‘Wajhu’ as ‘dominion and sovereignty (mulk) in verse كُلُّ شَيْءٍ هَالِكٌ إِلَّا وَجْهَهُ ۚ (Meaning – Everything will perish save His countenance (Al-Qasas – 88) in the ‘Book of Tafsir in Sahih Bukhari.
Al-Bani wrote : “No true believer would say such a thing” and “We should consider Bukhari innocent of that statement”. (Look how intelligently he is branding Imam Bukhari as Mushrik (Astghfiruallah). ( Reference – Introduction to al-San’ani’s Raf al-Astar – page 24-25).
Branding Imam Bukhari as Mushrik and untrustworthy in such a derogatory fashion, means removing the important pillar of Islam from its basement. How can the building stand without its basic important structural column.
The Ahadith mentioned below are from the Chapters titled “Kissing of Hands and Feet”, which are part of the 83 chapters removed by Al-Bani.
(1) It is in Hadith – Umm Aban, daughter of al-Wazi ibn Zari narrated that her grandfather Zari al-Abdi, who was a member of the delegation of Abd al-Qays, said: “When we came to Medina, we raced to be first to dismount and kiss the hand and foot of Allah’s Apostle (صلى الله عليه و آله وسلم). But al-Mundhir al-Ashajj waited until he came to the bundle of his clothes. He put on his two garments and then he went to the Prophet (صلى الله عليه و آله وسلم).
Abu Dawud narrates the above Hadith in his Sunan, book of Adab (vol. 4, p. 357 # 5225). Bayhaqi in the Sunan (7:102). At-Tayalisi in his Musnad. Al-Bazzar in his Musnad (3:278). Al-Haithami narrated it. Ibn al-Muqri narrated it in his Kitab ar-Rukhsa, p. 80 #20.
Ibn Hajar in Fath al-Bari (1989 ed. 11:67 Isti’dhan ch. 28 #6265) said: “Among the good narrations in Ibn al-Muqri’s book, is the Hadith of al-Zari al-Abdi.”
Ibn Abd al-Barr declared it Hassan, al-Mundhiriconfirmed it in Mukhtasar al-Sunan (8:86) and declared itHasan.
Tabarani declared it Sahih in two of his books: al-Mujam al-Kabir (vol. 5, p. 275 # 5313); and al-Mujam al-Awsat (vol. 1, p. 133 # 418).
Imam Bukhari has devoted a chapter on kissing the feet in his famous book ‘al-Adab al-Mufrad’. He has reported the above Hadith from Wazi ibn Aamir (رضئ اللہ تعالی عنہ), who was part of the delegation, in the following words on page number 339, Hadith number 975.
Imam Bukhari reports – It is reported by Zari ibn Aamir who came to Prophet (صلى الله عليه و آله وسلم) along with delegation of Abul Qays – قَدِمْنَا فَقِيْلَ: ذَاکَ رَسُوْلُ اﷲِ صلی الله عليه وآله وسلم. فَأَخَذْنَا بِيَدَيْهِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ نُقَبِّلُهَا [Meaning - We came to Madina, (we) were told: That was the Holy Prophet (صلى الله عليه و آله وسلم). So we enveloped the blessed hands and feet of the Holy Prophet (صلى الله عليه و آله وسلم) and began to kiss them].
(2) It is in Hadith – Suhayb (رضئ اللہ تعالی عنہ) was the freed slave of Abbas (رضئ اللہ تعالی عنہ) He states: رَأَيْتُ عَلِيًّا يُقَبِّلُ يَدَ الْعَبَّاسِ وَرِجْلَيْهِ وَيَقُوْلُ: يَا عَمِّ ارْضَ عَنِّي – ( Meaning – I saw Ali (رضئ اللہ تعالی عنہ) kissing the hands and feet of Abbas (رضئ اللہ تعالی عنہ) and he would keep saying this: O my Uncle! be pleased with me).
Imam Bukhari narrated the above Hadith in al-Adab al-Mufrad (p. 339 # 976).
It is also reported by ad-Dhahabi in Siyar Alam an-Nubala (vol. 2, p. 94); Mizzi reported it in Tahdhib al-Kamal (vol. 13, p. 240 # 2905); and Muqri in Taqbil al-Yad (p. 76 # 15).
Al-Bani published (a) Sahih Adab Al-Mufrad, (b) Da’eef Adab Al-Mufrad. All Ahadith removed from the original “Adab Al-Mufrad” have been shifted to Da’eef Adab Al-Mufrad” claiming them to be concocted, weak or fabricated.
This is a long-term planning. The future editions will be published only for the so called Sahih Adab Al-Mufrad, approved (read manipulated and altered) by Al-Bani and no one will ever know the contents of original Adab Al-Mufrad written by our Great Imam. The same strategy has been followed by him for all other Ahadith books.
Innocent Muslims are made to believe that Imam Bukhari, Imam Muslim and other Hadith Imams have written fabricated, concocted and spurious Ahadith in their books and Al-Bani has removed falsehood from these books.
What an innovative ploy against Islam?
We would like to bring to the attention of our readers that Imam Bukhari and his works are accepted by entire Muslim Umma as most authentic, after Quran. It is an undisputed Ijma (consensus).
It is reported that Imam Muslim kissed the forehead of Imam Bukhari, when he visited Imam Muslim’s hometown Nishapur and requested his permission to kiss his feet in these words – دعني حتی أقبّل رجليک، يا أستاذ الأستاذين وسيد المحدّثين وطبيب الحديث في علله (Meaning – O Teacher of teachers, Master of Hadith scholars and Doctor of Ahadith Authenticity, allow me to kiss your feet.
Al-Bani has discarded this greatest teacher and Imam of Hadith as an untrustworthy person.
Mentioning a Hadith, in a Hadith book is different from establishing a Chapter in the Hadith book. Establishment of a Chapter shows the Aqeedah of the Imam. When Imam Bukhari established a chapter titled ” Kissing of Hands and Feet”, it reflects his Imaan.
The above Ahadith mentioned above have been reported by the following Hadith Scholars, in addition to Imam Bukhari.
(i) Abu Dawud, (ii) Bayhaqi, (iii) At-Tayalisi, (iv) Al-Bazzar, (v) Al-Haithami, (vi) Ibn al-Muqri, (vii) Ibn Hajar, (viii) Ibn Abd al-Barr, (ix)al-Mundhiri, (x) Tabarani, (xi) Ad-Dhahabi, (xii) Mizzi, etc.
The reasons given by Al-Bani for removing the above two Ahadith is “Raavi majhool” ( Meaning – The narrator is not known to Hadith Scholars).
This kind of reason can only fool innocent people. We have mentioned the names of 13 Hadith Scholars above, including Imam Bukhari, who know and accept the authenticity of narrators of these Ahadith.
We ask all Muslims of the World; who would you believe; Imam Bukhari and other respected Imams of Ahadith or self declared scholar Al-Bani who has declared Imam Bukhari, Iman Abu Hanifah as Mushrikeen.
Al-Bani declared Imam Abu Hanifa as Kafir and compared Hanafi Fiqh as Gospel (teachings of Christianity). Read his commentary on al-Mundhiri’s Mukhtasar Sahih Muslim, 3rd ed. (Beirut: al-Maktab al-Islami, 1977, p. 548). This phrase was later removed in subsequent editions of this book by Salafis out of fear of Muslim backlash.
Al-Bani ordered all Salafis to follow him ( and reject all Imams of Ahadith and Fiqh en masse). (Refer Al-Bani’s notes on Nu`man al-Alusi’s al-Ayat al-Bayyinat p. 80 and his Silsila Da`ifa – #203).
Al-Bani declared Sahabah, including Khulfa-e-Rashideen, Members of Prophet’s (صلى الله عليه و آله وسلم) family, Muhajireen and Ansars (رضئ اللھ تعالی عنہم اجمعین ) as Bid’atees. Read details…
Al-Bani’s declaration is supported by all prominent Salafi Scholars in the world.
Dr. Zakir Naik, a hardcore Salafi, also talks in the same language as Al-Bani. He gives all the arguments given by Al-Bani and virtually convinces his audience that Sahabah are innovators, but stops short of calling them innovators openly to avoid Muslim backlash in the world.
Al-Bani should have, at least, spared two Salafi scholars, Ad-Dhahabi and Mizzi (who have also reported the above Ahadith) because they are the student and intellectual heirs of Ibn Taymiyyah. But no, in his haste to erase Islam, he forgot this important thing.
Salafis claim that before Al-Bani; Ad-Dhahabi also did the same thing by removing 2/3rd Ahadith from al-Mustadrak of Imam Abd Allah al-Hakim, who was teacher of Imam Bayhaqi. Well, we know, Salafi scholars are attempting to erase Islam for a long time now, which was started by their fore father and founder, Ibn Taymiyyah.
However, no one had dared to touch the books of Imam Bukhari and Muslim, the tallest figures in Hadith literature. But, Al-Bani did not care. He was inebriated with institutional support and free over-flowing petro-dollar wealth. He successfully changed many Ahadith books and managed to publish his so called Sahih Ahadith versions which, in essence are the altered and manipulated versions of these pious books.
When people get power and money they do revolt against Allah (سبحانہ و تعا لی) and we all know what happened to the nations who revolted against Allah (سبحانہ و تعا لی) in the past.
Al-Bani claimed, kissing of feet is shirk. Thus, according to Al-Bani, Imam Bukhari and Imam Muslim are Mushrikeen (استغفر اللہ ), because kissing of hands and feet is their Aqeedah. Imam Ahmad and other respected Imams are also Mushrikeen (استغفر اللہ ) because all of them believe in kissing of hands and feet. Other scholars who have reported above Ahadith and have claimed these Ahadith to be Sahih and Hasan are also Mushrikeen (استغفر اللہ ) because they believe in kissing of hands and feet of Shuyooks.
Al-Bani permitted menstruating women and those (men and women) in a state of major defilement (junub) (like had sex with their spouses and did not take bath) to recite, touch, and carry the Qur’an (Fatawa, page 18).(La haula wal quwwat illa billah). Al-Bani also allowed masturbation (by men and women) during fasting of Ramadhan and declared that it does not annul one’s fast (Tamam al-Minna). (Astaghfirullah). What kind of Islam is this. They have made fun of Islam. Salafis are Pagans of Arabia and they follow Paganism in the name of Salafism.
A man who has virtually declared most trusted dignitaries of Islam as Mushrikeen (استغفر اللہ ), changed the Ahadith books en masse and took Islam away from Muslims, what shall we call him?
A scholar or the biggest conspirator and worst enemy of Islam of recent times. We leave the decision to our readers and historians.
Al-Bani wrote in his Wasiyya (will): ” I ask that the graveyard (for my burial) be an old one, to ensure that its graves will not be dug and leveled to the ground)”. (Ma’a Shaykhinaa Naasiris-Sunnah wad-Deen – pages 27-31).
Al-Bani removed 83 chapters and 329 Ahadith from one single Hadith book, Adab Al-Mufred, written by Imam Bukhari. He did the same thing with many other important Ahadith books.

Al-Bani wrote : “No true believer would say such a thing” and “We should consider Bukhari innocent of that statement”. (Look how intelligently he is branding Imam Bukhari as Mushrik (Astghfiruallah). ( Reference – Introduction to al-San’ani’s Raf al-Astar – page 24-25).
