54. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh bin 'Amr said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Knowledge is based on three things, and anything beyond that is superfluous: a clear Verse, an established Sunnah, or the rulings by which the inheritance is divided fairly.'" (Da'if)
54 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي رِشْدِينُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، وَجَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَنْعُمٍ هُوَ الْإِفْرِيقِيُّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " الْعِلْمُ ثَلَاثَةٌ، فَمَا وَرَاءَ ذَلِكَ فَهُوَ فَضْلٌ: آيَةٌ مُحْكَمَةٌ، أَوْ سُنَّةٌ قَائِمَةٌ، أَوْ فَرِيضَةٌ عَادِلَةٌ "

a. As to the chain of transmitters, the tradition is Weak. Nevertheless, the importance of the knowledge of Qur'ân and Sunnah is established from many other proofs. Similarly, the importance of the law of inheritance can also hardly be overemphasized. b. The expression 'Muhkam' (translated as clear) means a Verse that has not been abrogated, nor is it allegorical or ambiguous. The Qur'ânic Science of Abrogation is an equally important branch of knowledge. To give a ruling in any matter in ignorance of this science can lead one into error. 'Established Sunnah' also means the prophetic tradition that has not been abrogated.
