Abstract
The Holy Quran is the word of God Almighty that is revealed to the Prophet SAW and transmitted to us in the mutawatir (multiple paths) transmission. In contrast to the hadith of the Prophet, other than hadith qudsi (words of God heard by the Prophet), the number of mutawatir hadiths is also small. This due to several factors include the focus of Muslims in early days was the preservation of the Quran and benefits of its recitation. Many people pay attention to the preservation of Quran through sanad (chain of transmission) and the same goes for the hadith. However, there are differences in some aspects of the relationship between the Quranic sanad and hadith sanad. Among the discrepancies was some of the qiraat (variant readings of the Quran) scholars were criticized of their credibility in the hadith tradition such as Imam ‘Asim, Imam al-Bazzi and Imam Hafs. They are said to be unacceptable in their narration of a hadith. From the perspective of hadith criticism, what is the status of the variant reading of the Quran recited by them? On the basis of the answers to this question, this article aims to discuss the differences between the practice of qiraat and the hadiths as well as to analyse the distinction in the credibility of a narrator or scholar in both disciplines.
