Considering a man-made book as a flawless holy Book of Islam count as Kufr?

First, correct me if Im wrong here: There is supposed to be only One Holy Book of Islam, flawlessly produced by God (i.e. The Qur'an)....... and if someone follows any other book as a Holy Book of Islam, which he/she thinks it is obligatory to follow, and which he/she thinks is also a flawless holy book, that is Kufr Right?

if yes then why do I see majority Muslims nowadays follow Sahih Al Bukhari ?

I am not interested in a copy-paste answer of requirement of Sahih Al Bukhari, my question is regarding following it alongside Qur'an as a Mandatory Holy Book of Islam! Why 2 Holy Books of Islam, when God asked to follow only 1?

About me: I dont follow any sect, I do follow Qur'an and Sunnah, but I am very cautious in terms of hadiths, as I accept only those that are proven from Qur'an, I reject those that are directly against the Qur'an, and other hadiths that are not against nor proven, I consider, but not rely on them.

Update:

BringingTruth. long answer, but thanks. OK lets assume two separate "Obey" means to obey separately, but my question is still valid, as I asked: who asked you to "Obey" Bukhari? (no one right?) so my method is not bad, selecting ONLY those hadiths that are 100% proven from Qur'an, instead of your method of assuming ALL correct, making a man-compiled book as "Holy" and "Flawless" - Major kufr. PLEASE think about it, and let me know if I make sense or not.

Again, I know, Qur'an + Sunnah = Islam.

I am concerned about the third thing called hadiths, that was never there in the Prophet's time. True Islam was always 'written Quran' and 'observed Sunnah', until humans tried to "improve" Islam by adding hadiths* centuries later after Prophet(saw) death.

*I appreciate their efforts and intentions, but it was not required.

Islam was complete already, with Qur'an and Sunnah, without non-universal rules.

Update 2:

BringingTruth, and why do we need to know that?... Sunnah (according to Qur'an) is the Method (actions) of Islamic Rituals, NOT EVERYTHING. That's the most common mistake, "follow" does not mean, keep the left foot in toilet like he did, but to actually follow how he followed Islam, (Prayers, Ablution, Hajj, etc etc)

And how we can know that?.. From the actions preserved successively from generations. Even if you remove all hadiths from this Earth, people can follow the exact way to do Ablution, Hajj, Prayers, Zakat, etc. because they "learn" from their elders/imam/etc. like how its going on since the time of Prophet -- Sahabah -- etc.

The same question can be asked to you: "How can you pray with Hadith only?"

you can't actually, until you "SEE" it in actions :)

Anyway, my point is: We obey the Messenger, by following the Qur'an (because this is what he was sent for, to convey the message of Qur'an) AND We follow the Sunnah

Update 3:

by practicing "Islam" the way he did. Sunnah is related to -- Islamic

    I stored my previous answer for the sake of answering your questions.

    First of all, you tell me what is sunnah?

    Sunnah is what prophet (saw) did and also what the companions (ra) did.

    But let me ask you, where can you learn that certain act is sunnah? [answer this question for me]

    'Prophets message in his last sermon.

    'O People, no prophet or apostle will come after me and no new faith will be born. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand words which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the QURAN and my example, the SUNNAH and if you follow these you will never go astray.'

    What is our source for getting to know the 'sunnah' if its not for the hadith collections?

    Hello expensive, The Bible displays the brain of God. A lot of instances men and women are doubtful as to what God thinks approximately them, occasions, happenings all over the world,and so forth. They marvel what is on His brain and in the event that they degree as much as His requisites. They wish to grasp what He's accountable for and what He's now not. The Bible was once written via guys however authored via God. By this I imply they have been encouraged via God to put in writing the phrases they wrote. It involves historical past, prophecies, analogies and so a lot more however it's constant despite the fact that written via centuries via quite a lot of writers a lot of whom certainly not met. When you will have the proper information of the Bible, you'll certainly not stroll in confusion. You'd recognise precisely what to do at each and every factor in time. Why now not comply with God's Word? Enjoy!

    Use common sense. Allah did not place holy Quran on a mountain top but

    sent it down to prophet Muhammad (SAW) whose job it was to show how to

    act upon it. He, his family and his companions acted upon it and left a bright

    example for people of later generations. So why should not we take guidance

    from them? Even none else but prophet Muhammad (SAW) told us what is

    Quran and what is hadith, so why not to believe his hadiths?

    First of all, let me ask you to tell me a few facts.

    Who was the one who recited the Koran first?

    Wasn't that Mohammad bin Abdullah al Muttailib al Hashim al Quraish?

    Now, he claimed that all the "Revelations" that he recited were given to him by the Archangel Gabriel, didn't he?

    Then, tell me why is that he never even once said "And, the Archangel Gabriel commanded me to Recite ...."?

    Nowhere in the entire Koran can you even see one, single, solitary place where Mohammad acknowledges that whatever he was saying was from Gabriel.

    Then, what proof have you got that this was really given to him by Gabriel, leave alone being "flawlessly produced by God" and was not the words that Mohammad concocted, pretending to be Allah speaking?

    Why is there not even one, single, solitary minuscule shred of evidence of Mohammad ever having met an Angel, leave alone the Archangel Gabriel?

    First of all, you need to prove that Mohammad even met an Angel, any Angel, to say anything more about the veracity of the Koran.

    many of the hadiths tell us why allah sent down certain verses of the quran.example; bukhari; the apostle of allah sent a military expedition to awtas on the occasion of the battle of hunain. they defeated them and took captives. some of the companions were reluctant to have intercourse with the female captives in the presence of their husbands. who were unbelievers. so allah the exalted send down sura 4:24 all married women are forbidden unto you. except those captives your right hand possess. it is a decree from allah for you. you see the hadits also tell us why allah sent a sura for mohammad to add to the quran.......i wonder what jave thinks of allah allowing the raping of captured women in the presense of their husbands?
