Ahad is considering his next step.
Islamically, Ahad means One Alone, unique, none like God.
Linguistically, hadith Ahad refers to a hadith narrated by only one narrator.
Souk Habasha lies in Al Bareq province,
and is famously known as Souk Al Ahad or Sunday's Market.
A second view, held by Dawud al-Zahiri, Ibn Hazm and others- and, reportedly,
the position of Malik ibn Anas is that hadith Ahad achieves certain knowledge as well.
One view, expressed by Ibn Hajar and others,
is that a hadith mutawatir achieves certain knowledge, while Ahad hadith, unless otherwise corroborated, yields
speculative knowledge upon which action is mandated.
Hadith Ahad consists of three sub-classifications also relating to the number
of narrators in the chain or chains of narration: An ʻaziz(عَزِيْز) hadith is any hadith conveyed by two narrators at every point in its isnād chain of narrators.
