Yes, the hadiths make for some “enlightening” reading on the subject of Islam.Do you have any recommendations to which hadith to read? It's on my bucket list, but only so much time in the day.

Also keep in mind: There are “The Four” and the “Five” (now six) and each collection is used by a different branch of Islam.
The Four are used by the Shias.
Sunnis etc use the other collection.

Do you have any recommendations to which hadith to read? There are several collections of hadith. Among Muslims, the Sahih al-Bukhari collection is considered among the most authoritative.
The hadiths are conveniently organized by topic.
If you have little time, important topics are #56 (Jihad), #57 (dividing the loot), #64(military expeditions), 88(Apostates)
