One thing that always struck me as odd is that the Hadiths and Sunna are accepted as canon when the Quran is very specific that it alone is canon.
Looking at the histories and who wrote the Hadiths and Sunna it becomes clear that they like much early christian writing was politically motivated.
The end result is all the controversy wracking the Islamic Faith today.
So what if the Hadiths and Sunna are rejected by the mainstream religious establishment of Islam from the start.
One effect is that the Abbassids lose a lot of legitimacy as their claim to rule relied on Aisha having sex with Muhammad at age nine... WTF!!! That I was never able to get as the Prophet was clear there must be consent in marriage and a nine year old can not give consent and understand it.
