Qudsi Hadith

• Qudsi Hadith is defined as the divine communication whose revelation is not part of the Quranic Miracle.

• Qudsi Hadith is from Allah, from the view point of meaning , but at the same time , it is the actual wording of the Prophet (peace be upon him).

Qudsi Hadith

• It is what Allah has communicated to the prophet (peace be upon him) through revelations or in dreams. Allah’s Messenger informed others of its meaning in his own words.

• Accordingly, the Quran is superior to Qudsi Hadith, because it is the actual word of God.
