This study investigates the role of hadith criticism in preventing radicalism among youth by emphasizing the analysis of sanad and matan as tools to counter the misuse of Islamic texts. Using a qualitative, library-based method with a critical-hermeneutic approach, the research examines three hadiths frequently instrumentalized by radical groups: the command to fight (HR. Bukhari-Muslim), the best jihad (HR. Abu Dawud, al-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah), and the migration to Syria (HR. Ahmad, Abu Dawud). The findings reveal that radical interpretations disregard historical context, misinterpret linguistic nuances, and rely on weak transmission chains. Hadith criticism provides corrective interpretations aligned with Islamic principles of peace and moderation. The study highlights the urgency of strengthening hadith literacy among youth through education and digital platforms to foster resilience against extremism. Its contribution lies in offering contextual reinterpretations of contested hadith and proposing practical strategies for inclusive and moderate religious education.
