The words, actions and approvals of Muhammad (pbuh), who is responsible for explaining the revelation as well as conveying it, have a very important place in understanding the Quranic Revelation (wahy) and bringing it to life. In fact, this relationship was pointed out with the statement “Sunnah is the judge (qadi) upon the Qur’an, but the Qur’an is not the judge (qadi) upon for the Sunnah” by Islamic scholars. At this point, where the importance of hadith/ sunnah in understanding the verses is pointed out, the question of how the differences encountered in understanding the hadiths affect the understanding of the revelation appears as an important issue. In our study, this question will be taken as a basis and by focusing on the 1st verse of Surah an-Nisa, it will be discussed how the understanding way of the hadith, which is accepted as a reference, affects the understanding of the Quranic verse.
