The thaqalayn hadith (hadith of the two precious things) has been narrated by a lot of early followers of Prophet (PBUH). Because that it is continuously reported as consensus in meaning. The first part of "thaqalayn" is the Holy Quran and second part is "Ahl-al-Bayt" of Prophet (PBUH). It has been seen that the word "sunnah" was used instead of "Ahl-al-Bayt" in some narrations of the hadithu’thaqalayn. There is a conflict about how the concept of "Ahl-al-bayt" is understood among the scholars of Ahl al-Sunnah and Shi’a. The scholars of Ahl al-Sunnah explain this concept as sunnah and scholars who follows sunnah of the Holy Prophet. On the other hand, the scholars of Shi’a explain the "Ahl-al-Bayt" in literal meaning of word. According to us it is more logical to evaluate the explanation of the concept of "Ahl-al-Bayt" as sound sunnah and scholars who follow the Holy Prophet’s sunnah.
