The Issue of Alteration in the Ṣiḥāḥ Sittah and the Clarification by the People of Truth
Source: Qur’an and Hadith Based Rulings and Issues, Vol. 01, p. 547
Question
Are the Ṣiḥāḥ Sittah (the six authentic books of Hadith) the same across all sects? In other words, have there been any alterations in these authoritative Hadith compilations?
Answer
Al-ḥamdu lillāh, waṣ-ṣalātu was-salāmu ʿalā Rasūlillāh, ammā baʿd!
✿ Some individuals, for their personal interests, made alterations in certain books.
✿ However, the people of truth (Ahl al-Ḥaqq) have identified and highlighted all such alterations in their writings, so that the truth may be made clear.
ھذا ما عندي والله أعلم بالصواب
