The Ruling on Rejecting Prophetic Hadiths Based on Reason

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Who rejects most of the hadiths in their entirety based on reason?

Answer:
Only the people of kalam (theological discourse) say this. This is reprehensible; we seek refuge in Allah.
Rather, it is obligatory to take the Sunnah through its legitimate channels, through the path of the imams of hadith and by examining the chains of narration.
As for using reason as the ultimate judge, this is an invalid action; we seek refuge in Allah. This is the practice of the Jahmiyyah and those similar to them.
