    What I've been saying for hours - how reliable is isnad as historical methodology?https://twitter.com/salyounas/status/632370819897925632 …

    Reza Aslan added,

    Salman Younas @salyounas
    @dhulqarnayni @MuslimMatters @rezaaslan he only seems to say that we can't verify/affirm prophetic practice through means of isnad

        @rezaaslan Isn't there a whole body of literature on this subject? I remember seeing lots of diagrams, including doubtful links in isnads.

        @rezaaslan I'd say it's by design rather than accident that hadiths given priority.The very guardians, Wahabis promote their sect $billions.

        @rezaaslan how reliable? is this a math question? 100% 95% confidence level, 80% ; Does it mean 99% reliable would mean 100% unreliable?

        @rezaaslan you are right, and this is the reason of studying isnad in order to find out how a certain Hadith is reliable or not.
