Sure, but it is impossible to pretend the majority of Islam today has severe problems.
Sure not all Muslims want to enforce the brutality of the Hadith.
But most do believe the Hadith is divinely mandated.
Much of the Hadith is completely disgusting.
No Muslim believes Hadiths are infallible. Rather Hadiths are ranked according to different levels of reliability, with Sunnis and Shi'ites having differing opinions--for example, Sunnis revere A'ishah, whereas Shi'ites consider her the devil for leading an insurrection against Ali at the Battle of the Camel. So Haidths recounted by Ayesha are accepted with reverence by Sunnis, but rejected completely by Shi'ites.
Most Muslims believe anything Muhammad said must be followed.
Sure many disagree over what Hadiths actually state what Muhammad said.
