There's Qur'an verses which are "obsolete": https://islam.stackexchange.com/q/38244/17163 although the formal term is naskh : > Naskh (نسخ) is an Arabic word usually translated as "abrogation"; It is a term used in Islamic legal exegesis for seemingly contradictory material within, or between, the two primary sources of Islamic law: the Quran and the Sunna. This Wikipedia snippet suggests the possibility that there are hadith which are obsolete. This leads me to my question: **Question**: Are there obsolete hadith? I'm guessing the answer is yes, so a concrete example would be useful (ideally explaining how we know it's obsolete).
