Concept:Hadith Qudsi is the type of hadith whose meaning and message come directly from Allah, but the wording is that of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Explanation:Allah conveys His message to the Prophet (PBUH) through inspiration or revelation.
When the Prophet (PBUH) narrates this divine message in his own words, it is called Hadith Qudsi.
It is sacred and holy because its origin is Allah.
It differs from the Qur'an, whose exact words are also from Allah.
It also differs from other hadith categories.
Sahih means an authentic hadith with a strong chain of narrators.
Hasan means a good hadith with acceptable reliability.
Gharib means a hadith narrated by only one person at a certain level.
None of these categories is defined by the message coming from Allah.
Only Qudsi specifically refers to a hadith whose message is directly from Allah.
Answer:C. Qudsi
