Hello this looks like an old discussion, but this topic was a big one for me when i was a muslim.
I was engaged to a sister who followed hadith. I was a new muslim and was still reading the Quran.
Near the end of the quran i realized that some of what i was being told to do wasn't anywhere in the Quran. That infact it came from another source other than Allah. But it is written in the Quran that Allah provided us with everything we needed to know, that the Quran was perfectand complete.
6:114 Am I, then, to look unto anyone but God for judgment as to what is right and wrong, when it is He who has bestowed upon you from on high this divine writ, clearly spelling out the truth?" And those unto whom We have vouchsafed revelation aforetime know that this one, too, has been bestowed from on high, step by step, by thy Sustainer. Be not, then, among the doubters
16:89 for one Day We shall raise up within every community a witness against them from among themselves. And thee [too, O Prophet,] have We brought forth to bear witness regarding those [whom thy message may have reached], inasmuch as We have bestowed from on high upon thee, step by step, this divine writ, to make everything clear, and to provide guidance and grace and a glad tiding unto all who have surrendered themselves to God.
So are hadith followers among the doubters? for they think they need to look outside the Quran for guidance? When infact you don't NEED to at all. You may choose to pray the way it says in hadiths, but need? Allah was perfectly clear on what we need.
obey the Prophit in as far as the Quran as revealed to him, anything else is personal choice. some may seek a way of praying that comes from the heart.
I personally found i was paying more attention to doing the movements right and pronouncing the arabic right than i was thinking about Allah which was the whole point anyway.
so i was told i am not a muslim by numerous other muslims. my engagemnet was broken off, and here i am.
Peace
