The issue of al-jam’ wa al-tafrīq [combining and differentiating] first became apparent early on, with the very beginning of the genre of rijāl al-hadith, being the study of hadith narrators. Within chains of hadith narrations, one finds many narrators who share the same name. More specifically, two narrators may have the same first name and father’s name, first name and family name, first name and kunya [honorific], or the like. This problem appeared so frequently that scholars who’ve tackled it over the years first dedicated specific terminology to this, al-muttafiq wa al-muftariq [the alike and the unalike], and then built a whole sub-genre dedicated to this under the broader field of hadith studies. Just as this issue appears in all books dedicated to the study of hadith narrators, it also is a frequent question in books more narrowly focused on the biographies of the Sahaba, the companions of the Prophet Muhammad. This study aims to give careful consideration to this issue of al-jam’ wa al-tafrīq in books dedicated to the Sahaba specifically. It uncovers the perceptiveness of the authors of this genre and the particular attention they paid to solving this matter, both in theory and in practice. This study further aims to identify their tendencies toward either narrowing or expanding, such as whether they tended to consider narrators with shared names as a single individual or as separate individuals, and to evaluate the efficacy of their approaches toward resolving this issue. The article begins with Ibn Manda and Abu Nu’aym, moves on to Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr, and ends with Ibn al-Athīr and Ibn Hajar. Beyond tracing the history of this issue and its development through books dedicated to the Sahaba, this paper will identify the various ways these authors addressed companions with shared names and will evaluate the effectiveness of their perspectives. The article then ends by offering critical suggestions to refine the methodology currently used when approaching this issue. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Hadith Collection is the best form of the sayings of Holy Prophet SAW. Among this collection, Sunan by Imam AbuDawood is the key figure to explicit the sayings of the Prophet in Fiqhi Manner. The traditions in Sunan Abu Dawood are divided in three categories. The first category consists of those of the traditions that are mentioned by Bukhari and/or Muslim. Imam Abu Dawood compiled this book with a great struggle to search and edit the hadith in it. This book has been edited on Fiqhi sequence. To compile the book, Imam Abu Dawood exerted his major part of life. He categorized various Tabaqat on the basis of JarahoTadeel. He also used contemplated words in his collection. While narrating hadith, he also elaborated the difference during channel of transmitters, continued the sequence of abrogating hadith prior to abrogated ones, elucidated fiqhi quotes and deduced benefits from these very sayings, If there is the individual or major difference of opinion he also tried to furnish it with examples. He got the hadith(s) from the great scholars of his era like Imam Ahmed, Imam Shafee, Imam Bukhari, Ali bin Madeeni etc. He narrated the hadith(s) from his teachers and senior ones and conveyed to his disciples. This very method is called "AKHZ-OTAHDEES". The present research paper will highlight various principles of hadith with unique quoted examples, Imam Abu Dawood has formulated for hadith compilation. His methodology of compiling hadith (s), narrators, text and transmitters have been explored in the paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper attempts to settle an old debate which has not yet been resolved, between rational scientific culture based on logic and an objective process that is relatively selfless on the one hand, and a faith-oriented religious culture on the other hand, and how both views impact historiography as a methodological science. Accordingly, history throughout the Islamic era has remained a fixed and traditional process, which adopts the approaches and methods of early predecessors and scholars in term of evaluating and critiquing narratives to verify the authenticity of prophetic hadiths, in the context of broader and more general contexts, which believed that history in itself is a product of a divine creation.

This research aims to shed light on a hidden aspect of the personality of Imam Ibn Al-Qattan, after becoming famous in the field of Hadith sciences. The aspect that I want to show in this paper is the aspect of Usul, as the research revealed Ibn al-Qattan's good knowledge of Usul al-Fiqh. The historians mentioned that he has many books in this science, perhaps the most important of which is the book: "Masayil Min 'Usul Alfiqh Lam Yadhkurha Al'usuliuwn Fi Kutubihim". This indicates that Ibn al-Qattan was not only concerned with what the scholars of Usul al-Fiqh said, but he was one of the renovators in this science. Among what we explained in this research: what is related to the total evidence considered by him in the construction of rulings, which are the Qur'an, the Sunnah, consensus, measurement, accompaniment, reclamation, and the principle of precaution... It was also clear that he did not see the authenticity of some evidence as Shariah from us, and blocking the pretext in opposition to text and more. This research has mentioned some of Ibn al-Qattan's choices in the Fundamentals of jurisprudence sub issues. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In every period, hadith experts have contributed to the preservation of the Hadith. Imam Malik composed M’ūaṭa to safeguard the hadith, and Imam al-Bukhari afterwards turned to al-Mu'tah for assistance. The research methodology of this paper is an analytical study of the reliance of Imām Bukhārī on Al-M’ūaṭa Imam Mālik in Ṣaḥiḥ Bukhārī. In our article, we came to the conclusion that Imam Bukhari recounted a total of six hundred sixty-eight narrations from Imam Malik in his Sahih, of which six hundred four are scriptural narrations that he took from ten versions of Al- M’ūaṭa. As a result, these narrations make up more than ninety percent of all narrations. Contrasted with in his Sahih, Imam Muslim narrates three hundred eighty-nine narrations from Imam Malik, three hundred twelve of which are scriptural narrations that he has derived from eight of narrations of al M’ūaṭa's. These narrations so account for more than eighty percent of all narrations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to study Ahadis that Al-Imam Al-Daraqutni has mentioned in his book " Al-Afraad wa Al-Gharaaib" as At-tafarrud whereas they are defective due to its persistence in later periods. Hidden defects of the Hadith is one of the highly esteemed knowledge that few scholars had studied, of them, is Al-Imam Al-Daraqutni. It has a prominent role in the preservation of the Sunnah of Muhammad (peace be upon him), as mistakes of some narrators were hidden and considered authentic mistakenly. Al-Daraqutni wrote the book "Al-Afraad wa Al-Gharaib", and compiled Ahadith of individuals and oddities. He explained strangeness and the subject of exclusivity or conflict. It is a major source for (acknowledgment of) hidden defects of hadith. The research is done practically and critically by collecting the defected ahadith and studying it according to the methodology of scholars. It consists of an Introduction to Al-Daraqutni and his book, At-tafarrud its divisions and ruling. The first section explains taffaurd i.e. rejected by scholars due to its persistence in later periods and its regulations. The second section proves the practical implementation of these ahadith through examples from the book. In conclusion, important results from research are mentioned. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
