The ruling on the singular narration of the trustworthy narrator

Abstract

The issue of uniqueness is of great importance, as it plays a significant role in uncovering. Uniqueness in itself is not a fault, but it is a presumption of one and a raison for it. This research came to examine the judgments of the imams who are critics of the prophetic hadith and to clarify their stance on the uniqueness of narrators in general and the trustworthy narrator In particular. By tracing their texts and looking into their practical applications, it becomes evident that they considered the conditions of the narrators and distinguished between and the honest, and hence, the aim of the research was to examine the rulings on the uniqueness of the trustworthy and the evidence related to their uniqueness, this is because the majority of later hadith scholars have adopted the practice of accepting the trustworthy narrator as long as he does not contradict someone stronger than him. This is contrast to the methodology of the triticale imams, who do not judge a narrator-whether hi is trustworthy or truthful-based on a general rule of acceptance or rejection, except through the considerations and examining the reality of the narration from the condition of the narrator and the narrated.
