I was reading this scholar's book on hadiths. He says there are two extreme approaches to hadith. Some people reject it because they find irrational stuff in it, and others follow it in its entirety. Both are mistaken. He says that only about 200 hadiths are authentic. The rest, all the many hundred thousands collected in Sahih Bukhari, Muslim, Tirmidhi and Sunan Abu Dawood, contain material that contradicts the Quran, science, and reason.
