A hadith (pl. ahadith) is composed of two parts: the matn (text) and the
isnad (chain of reporters). A text may seem to be logical and
reasonable but it needs an authentic isnad with reliable reporters to be
acceptable; �Abdullah b. al-Mubarak (d. 181 AH) is reported to have
said,
�The isnad is part of the religion: had it not been for the isnad,
whoever wished to would have said whatever he liked.�
