The answer

The prophetic tradition () that some scholars have called "the mother of the " is the long Hadith of Gabriel. Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar mentioned in "Al-Fath" that Al-Qurtubi said this hadith is fit to be called "the mother of the Sunnah" due to its inclusion of the entirety of the knowledge of the Sunnah. Al-Tibi said: "For this reason, Al-Baghawi began his two books, 'Al-Masabih' and 'Sharh Al-Sunnah,' with it, emulating the Qur'an in its beginning with Al-Fatiha." Qadi Iyad said: "This hadith encompasses all the functions of outward and inward acts of worship."
