Digital Inventory for Hadith Launched in Morocco
The Islamic affairs ministry, the country’s highest religious authority, launched it on Monday.
The platform is available through the “hadithm6.com” and “hadithm6.ma” portals. An app is also available on Play Store and App Store.
The “Mohammed VI for Hadith Acharif” now contains the largest online inventory for Hadith put together by the ministry.
The platform aims to allow the general public access to the holy scriptures and to identify their authenticity.
Speaking after the launching of the platform, the minister of endowment and Islamic affairs, Ahmed Taoufiq, said that the establishment of the platform is of significant religious and scientific value as it will offer the general public access to invaluable religious information.
Knowledge of Islam implies learning the Quran, the minister said. “Verily, it is We who sent down the Quran, and it is We who are guardians,” Taoufiq said, quoting Surat Al Hijr-15-9-.
“The Quran we have today is exactly the same that was revealed to Prophet Mohammad (PBUH),” he added.
The minister underscored the importance of studying the Sunnah, which comprises the preaching and practices of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). The Sunnah is the second source of references on religious matters for Muslims and Muslim scholars alike.
It includes, among other things, the words, actions, or practices of the Holy Prophet, according to the minister. Taoufiq then pointed out the importance of verifying the authenticity of each Hadith.
The “Mohammed VI for Hadith Acharif” platform contains a Q&A section to enhance interaction with users, the minister explained, adding that users who submit religious inquiries through the platform will receive answers via emails within 24 hours.
