English term or phrase: the sanction of orthodoxy
The faithful believe that whenever Muhammad trod on a rock his foot always left an imprint. This belief started very early in Islam, and although it has never had the sanction of orthodoxy and no hadith or early authority can be cited to support it, it is widely held.
Please help me understand the rationale behind the second sentence. "having no sanction of orthodoxy" is not in contrast with "being widely held". So why "although" is used?
