Hadith terminology

easy2018FIA Sub Inspector Paper 2018 Batch 2
Islamic StudiesFIA

The term 'Hadith' is derived from which root?

A
Hadith
B
Tahadith
C
Both
D
None of these
Explanation and memory cue

The term 'Hadith' is derived from the Arabic root ḥ-d-th (ح-د-ث), which originally means 'to happen' or 'to occur.' By extension, it also means 'to speak,' 'to converse,' or 'a talk or report.' In pre-Islamic Arabic, 'hadith' referred to ordinary speech or small talk, and the noun simply meant 'a saying' or 'a piece of news.' When the early Muslim community began collecting the sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad, they used this existing word to denote those narrated reports. Therefore, the root of the term 'Hadith' is indeed the root ḥ-d-th itself, making option A correct. Option B 'Tahadith' is a verb form related to speaking or narrating but is not the root itself.
