Abstract

This study aims to systematically review past literature concerning the dissemination of inauthentic hadīth within the Malaysian community and its impact on them. The Systematic Literature Review method is used in searching for previous articles that are relevant to the topic of interest. In data analysis, a deductive thematic analysis approach is employed, where specific keywords are selected during the identification process to search for pertinent articles. The study identifies three main themes related to the topic: the spread of inauthentic Hadith, its impact, and efforts to address this issue, with these themes further categorized into 10 sub-themes. The study contributes to the existing literature on inauthentic hadīth by offering insights into recent developments, providing a comprehensive overview, identifying areas for improvement, and enhancing understanding of the study's scope within the field.
