Sunnah, along with Quran, has become an essential criteria in the Islamic thought in determination and critique of hadith in terms of their relatedness to the Prophet. However, different approaches toward the determination and the content of the Sunnet as the essential factor in terms of the articulation and functionality of this criteria have been appeared in the long historical proccess. Thus, this paper, especially, is a step for articulating the place of "ma'rouf/mashour sunnah", which was a dominant concept in the first two centuries of the Hijri calendar, in determination and cri-tique method of hadith and also, its historical background and function. Even though there are some limitations of active usage of "ma'rouf/mashour sunnah" originated from different understan-dings of sunnah, it is an important and primary criteria developed from methodological structure of the determination and the critique of hadith, and also it is a criterion which keeps its value in its consistency, applicability and functionality.

Logic, in Hegel, is the name of the system that detects and determines the principles (categories) of the Absolute. The categories of logic or thought are ontological and are the categories of the Absolute. For this, it would be said that the whole philosophical system of Hegel is a system of logic and that his logic is totally a system of metaphysics. It seems that he sets up his logic on the bases of two principles: 1. "The reasonable is real and the real is reasonable" 2. Principle of identities of opposites. These two principles are principles of both logic and metaphysics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
