The Uniqueness of the Narrator and His Effect on the Banishment of Hadiths in the Criticism of Ibn Abd Al-Barr al-Andalusi

Abstract

There is no doubt that the narrator’s uniqueness of hadith has an effect, ei-ther from the point of describing it or from the point of judging him. As for his description, this is due to its meaning in the language, here the difference in the ruling is constructive in the form of that uniqueness or the degrees of the narrators in terms of their eligibility for that uniqueness or lack thereof. Then it appeared to us from the criticism of ibn abd al-barr his extreme atten-tion to the statement of negligence in the hadiths because of the uniqueness, and through the analysis it appeared to me the aspects of uniqueness that re-quired negligence in his criticism, whether what was explicitly stated or what i deduced as an inference, one of the most important motives for negligence in his criticism was: the narrator uniquely had a hadith with a well-known chain of narrators, including the reasons for his fame. Or the narrator alone with an increase in hadith that the trustworthy do not agree with; which includes a vi-olation of consensus or a violation of consideration and measurement, or a vi-olation of what was settled by the fatwa, or because this addition does not re-semble the words of the prophet among the reasons for obnoxiousness he also has the narrator’s uniqueness with a strange chain of transmission.
