As Saalamu Alaikoum,

Praise be to Allah.

First of all, you need to affiliate yourself with a masjid that follows the Quran and the Sunnah with the understanding of the Sahabah without belonging to a sect.

Secondly, for those new to Islam we recommend that you read Sahih Al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim hadith books. The reason we recommend these books is because they are the most authentic of all hadith books and no scholar of islam would dare to challenge their authenticity. Also, 85 percent of the knowledge of Islam is in Bukhari and Muslim.

In regards to how can you tell an authentic hadith from a non-authentic one.. for one thing.. if it is authentic, most likely it will say that it was classed as authentic by the reputable scholars.

Again.. do not judge a person by his so called fame. If he or she were all that knowledgeable of Islam and had true understanding of this religion he would not be using weak or fabricated hadiths with you. Also remember no one is more famous than Shaytaan...

AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
