1. Hadeeth 2408 in Saheeh Muslim is authentic according to main Sunni scholars of Hadeeth like Shu'aib al-Arna'oot who stared and confirmed that this Hadeeth is Saheeh ( Authentic) (Takhreej al-Musnad, 17 /170). This Hadeeth is narrated in many other Sunni books of Hadeeth and states the order of the Prophet (SAWA) to follow Quran and Ahlul Bayt (AS) to be on the right path of Islam, but it was been ignored by many Muslims because of political reasons.

2. Hadeeth 3175 in Saheeh Muslim is narrated from Ayesha and it claims that the Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) was inflicted by black magic. This is against Quran which stated that the Prophet is protected by Allah. This false claim is same the enemies of the Prophet said to the believers (You are following a man who has been inflicted by black magic. (Sura Al-Furqan, verse 8).

No doubt, this narration is false and can never be true.

Wassalam.
