We have the Musnads and the Sahihs, and these Sunans which serve as a supplement to the Qur'an (Clarification of the sources of the people of the Sunnah and the sources of the people of ta'til, and the definition of Musnad and Sunan)

The Shaykh : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
The author said in this passage, may Allah have mercy on him:
"And we have, and we have, the Musnads and the Sahihs, and these Sunans which serve as a supplement to the Qur'an"
This means we have the evidence in the Musnads, the plural of Musnad, such as the Musnad of Imam Ahmad, and the Sahihs, the plural of Sahih, such as al-Bukhari, and the Sunans, the plural of Sunnah, referring to the Sunan of al-Nasa'i, Abu Dawud, and the like.
This means our evidence from the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) found in the Musnads, Sahihs, and Sunans.
He says: "which serve as a supplement to the Qur'an" His statement "serve as a supplement" means that they provide detail regarding what the Qur'an presents in general terms, and they may sometimes provide an independent ruling not found in the Qur'an. However, this independent ruling not found in the Qur'an is one that the Qur'an has directed us to accept, as stated by Allah the Exalted:[An-Nisa 4:59] and His statement: [Al-Hashr 59:7] Although this verse was revealed in the context of fay' (war spoils), if it is obligatory to accept what the Messenger gave them from the fay' and to refrain from what he forbade from the fay', then what he legislated is all the more obligatory to accept in any case. The Sunnah serves as a supplement to the Qur'an in matters requiring detail or the like.
