Salamun Alaykum,
Brother Joseph,
You're aware of Nouman Ali Khan and his Bayyinah institute most likely as I've seen one of your Face Book post providing a link. Over all Bayyinah is good in bringing awareness of the Quran among American Muslim Youth in particular and world Muslims in general and by the day his popularity is on the rise and so also the fan following. I don't know or doubt the intention but sometimes he makes these speeches going out of the way to legitimize entire Hadith corpus and he has done this twice in short span defending Hadith corpus as a means to understanding the Quran and I felt it's misleading the youth with his explanation of Ayah 4:65 as a clear proof of Hadith/Sunnah (mind you they don't draw distinction between the two) being inseparable from Quran.

But no, by your Lord, they will not [truly] believe until they make
you, [O Muhammad],
judge concerning that over which they dispute among themselves and then find within themselves no discomfort from what you have judged and
submit in [full, willing] submission.
Thank you!
