Muhammad Abduh writes, "Anyway, it is required from us to dust off the commands in the hadeeth and not let it direct our Aqeedah, we take what is in the texts of the Qur'aan and what is in accordance with the Aql.” The modernists have made Aql their judge to determine which hadeeth are acceptable, preferring those with general principles over the ones with specific meaning. Concerning the hadeeth, "There is none born among the off-spring of Adam, but Shaytan touches it. A child therefore, cries loudly at the time of birth because of the touch of Shaytan, except Maryam and her child." [Saheeh al-Bukharee (641)] Zamakhshari remarks, "Allah alone knows the authenticity of this, for if this was true, then it would mean that Shaytan craves to seduce every new-born except Maryam and her son; so they are both masoom (free from sin), and similarly whosoever fits their description… The beginning of the cry from the touch is a representation of his craving… The reality of the touch is not as people think. No. If Shaytan was to control people then the world would have been full of cries…" [Tafseer Juz Amma, p.186] [Tafseer al-Kashshaf (1/385-386)] - 45 -
The modernists do not accept Ahaad Ahadeeth in matters of Aqeedah. Muhammad al-Ghazali as-Saka argues, "Verily, beliefs, its basis is pure certainty that does not have a speck of doubt. Moreover, the beliefs of Islam are based upon mutawathir texts and established Aql. We do not base our Aqeedah upon khabar wahid (i.e., Ahaad Ahadeeth) or guessing thoughts." [As-Sunnah an-Nabawiya bayna ahlul-fiqah wa ahlul-hadeeth p.66. Muhammad Abduhu also writes, "About the hadeeth which speak about Maryam and Eesa that the Shaytan does not touch them, and the hadeeth which speaks about the Shaytan of Allah's Messenger � accepting Islam, and the removal of the share of Shaytan from his � heart - these are from Dhanni (unsure) reports because they are from Ahaad hadeeth which speak about the world of the unseen, and Eeman in the unseen comes under Aqeedah, and nothing that is dhanni can be accepted concerning it… We are not responsible to have faith in information from those Ahadeeth in our Aqeedah." [Tafseer al-Manar (3/292)] Quoted from al-Asraniyoon, p288] - 46 -
