‘There is a great reward for reading the Noble Qur’an
in terms of coming closer to Allaah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala,
as is reading and memorizing the Hadeeth of the Messenger of Allaah
-sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam.
And this is because it is worship of Allaah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala
(in pursuit of) acquiring knowledge
and a greater understanding of the religion.

Ahadith (singular: hadith) are narrations of things that Prophet Muhammad said, did, or approved of, in other words, things that form his "sunnah." As Muslims, we first and foremost take our knowledge from the Quraan and Sunnah. So, it is important to learn about ahadith, which transmit the sunnah to us.in terms of coming closer to Allaah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala,

Excerpts:
Scholars unanimously agree and consider “Saheeh al-Bukhaaree” and “Saheeh Muslim” to be the most authentic written works of Hadeeth.
It should not be understood that “Saheeh al-Bukhaaree” and “Saheeh Muslim” encompass every authentically reported statement of Allaah’s Messenger (صلّى الله عليه وسلّم). Rather, there are many authentic Hadeeth collected by other scholars that neither one of them (al-Bukhaaree & Muslim) recorded in their collections.
