Revelations Outside the Quraan
-
The basic premise of those who reject the authority of the Sunnah is that Allaah only revealed the Quraan to the Prophet Muhammad .
However, there are certain indisputable verses in the Quraan which clearly prove that the Prophet received divine revelations that are not in the Quraan
And we did not appoint the Qiblah that you were upon except to test those who would follow the Messenger from those who would turn upon their heels.
This verse is speaking about the initial Qiblah, which was facing toward Jerusalem. Allaah later changed the Qiblah toward Makkah, and some hypocrites objected to this
The order to face Makkah as the Qiblah is found in the Quraan. However, Allaah says that He also gave the initial Qiblah toward Jerusalem to the Prophet as well. Yet nowhere in the Quraan will you find an order from Allaah telling the believers to face toward Jerusalem when they pray. It was a divine inspiration that was expressed through the Sunnah.
Allaah also says
When the Prophet disclosed a matter in confidence to one of his consorts, and she then divulged it (to another), and Allaah made it known to him, he confirmed part thereof and repudiated a part. Then when he told her thereof, she said, "Who told thee this? "He said, "He told me Who knows and is well-acquainted."
This is another example of a revelation that the Prophet received that is nowhere to be found in the Quraan.

Spreading prophet's hadith is bad. Thanks for pointing that out.This is another example of a revelation
Er, "revelation"? By way of inspiration perhaps.

Jerusalem, Makkah, I don't find these words in the aayat quoted. And don't you afraid of saying something lie on Allah that Allah never said? Look at the highlighted part above and get me which aayat you are referring to.

Oh, that is a personal matter of the Prophet, it is not good to discuss and disclose his personal matters. And when Allah did not what us to know what was said by Prophet to his wife, then why are you interested in it?
BTW, as brother Wakas stated, inspiration cannot be a revelation.
May Allah guide us all to His true path pr
